If so they would already know who he is just by saying he was fired and not allowed to resign

Sorry to hear that man. They seemed pretty fair when i went through. There is always hope though. Lots of airlines are hiring and as long as you are straight forward and honest with everything that happened i believe you can still get hired. Showing humility will go a long ways in the eyes of the next company. Its all jokes and what not on here until you hear something like this.

Hope it works out for you from here out.

I am FURIOUS that the chief pilot AI would NOT give me the option to resign. I was told that he did not know me well enough and that i deserved to be fired so as to be taught a lesson and made an example of. At least a warning would have been nice. You fantastic group of pilots at mesa expecting a class of 40 and getting 11 seem to think you can just toss out whoever you want because they fart in the wrong direction. What a top notch airline to work for. Maybe ill go apply to great lakes. At least they would tell me what they expected of me instead of firing me just to screw me over.
Airlines are not in the business of firing people 'just to screw them over.' Putting you in class costs them money, so they just lost out on that investment. I don't know who you are or what you did, but instead of blaming your classmates/ the chief pilot/ et cetera, you may wish to take a hard look at your own behavior and ask yourself what you can do to avoid a future recurrence.

Because you'll have to explain your firing at any aviation job interview you'll ever have, I strongly suggest you come up with a better explanation than what you've posted here. Getting canned from a 121 operation won't end your aviation career, but it will make it much tougher to get another 121 or 135 gig.
Sorry, but that's the simple truth. You'll be competing against plenty of other pilots with spotless records.

And who knows... Given the complaining about Mesa on this forum, Mesa may have just done you a favor...

You come on here whining about Mesa firing you, without giving you the opportunity to resign, and you get mad when we want details. As this is not typical of today's mesa.

So once again, you must have done something VERY bad. That or you failed your DOT test or didn't disclose something in your background.

So what part of this is the juicy steak they dangled in front of you and said don't bite?
