Plus he said "sure I'll fly the 900!"

Guessing he's what Mesa will call an ex-employee fairly soon. Kind of like FaceBiter.

And this relates to the orginal topic of Mesa hiring in what way? So what if I said it- that affect you life in what way?? Not at all just like your opinion doesn't affect me.

This may be the dumbest thing I have ever read on here. You think the majors care about where you get your flight time? X regional versus Y regional they don't give a ****. It's all about qualifications. Maybe take into account that Mesa hires virtually anybody with multiple checkride failures. I've been online since February and I can only think of 3 captains that I have flown with that even have a 4 year degree that weren't lifer/second career types.

Just passing along info I heard -doesn't apply to me. IDK if Mesa has hired people with issues, if they have good- as long as they work and apply themselves to be successful here, I am not gonna bad mouth someone who got on here and is working hard to make themselves successful, more power to them! I have given guys second chances, what wrong with that? They turned out to be damn good pilots too!

You understand that post bankrupty, before upgrades started again ~ winter of 13-14, the only guys still in the left seat at Mesa were lifers right? Everyone else was downgraded (the guys under 45-50 years old) had been downgraded or furloughed.

Also a college friend works in HR at UAL. If you honestly think when hiring someone they look at things like "oh they are Captains at our cheapest UAX carrier, we can't hire him." You are a moron.

The world has changed, your buddies can't walk your resume in anymore until you get past the infamous computer firewall. I know of at least one Mesa captain who's wife is a pilot at US Airways, and there is nothing she can do to help.
I'd be willing to bet that most other regionals have pilots actively looking to move on who have been at their current job for at least five years. Most CA's at Mesa who never downgraded and are still here are lifers, and those wishing to move on are only NOW starting the process. The younger CA's who were downgraded then upgraded again who desperately want to move on lack a four year degree. The majority of newer people at Mesa who want to get in, get their time, and move on do not have five years at Mesa. Recruiters at majors want to see a four year degree, and a decent amount of time at your current employer. Other regionals are filled with people who meet that criteria.
Also, chances are, if you act like a dick on this forum, you more than likely act the same way offline, and you better believe that your former co-workers who move on, will tell others to not hire you. It's a small industry.
Reading the responses on this forum really scares me about who is sitting next to me in the cockpit, and to a larger extent, the younger generations IQ levels.

Your a Captain now? Swore I thought you just got on at -who cares?
Show your proof of my allegedly posting my "washout" history, logically speaking, if you don't care, why did you post this information about me in the first place? You also have taken it upon yourself to spread false misleading statements about me and my character of whom and what you know nothing about. You know a lawyer could hand a document called a subpeona to the operators of this website, find you behind your ip address and trace that right to you then the legal process would have to get involved and you would have to see what consequences your tongue brought you. Your functionality -prejudiced, naive juvenile and a thinking logic process that is more emotional than logic leads me to at least one hypothesis about your mental acuity, your trying to gain respect, admiration or whatever your life goal is by trying to put others down, magnifying percieved or imagined short comings or your own dillusional perceptions. This in your altered reality, validates you as a person, when in actuality, you need no validation at all. I sense a loathing for the bad choices you made in life and you seek to channel that anger on someone, anyone that you seek to find validation from or against.
Shame really, you have the potential to be so much more than a person who seems to feed off of negative contrivances.

Looks like no more Mexico and Canada overnights out of PHX for this bid.

There is a Corpus Christi overnight though. Anyone have experience there?
