Actually your contract is basically the same as PSA regarding downgrades. PSA would only downgrade if they were also furloughing. It's the same at Mesa.

Ah, forgive me, someone in the PSA thread said PSA's contract states a current CA could lose his CA spot if as FO senior to reached mins, and that CA would be downgraded.

I'm with wt... for the most part.

If this new proposal sucks, which it most likely will, vote no. If it's good, vote yes. (Sucks=Still below industry standard) My second grade teacher taught me a very valuable quote that was along the lines of, "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again."

I'm one of those old crusty downgrade captains (young 30's) that was brought up to fight for what I know is right and what I believe. I've got almost a dozen recs, a bachelors degree, a few thousand hours PIC, volunteer work 4-6 days a month plus a lot more than most have. No call. But I'm sure the young guns that think I and my fellow friends/coworkers in the same boat, will get in as soon as they get that precious PIC. (Please thank your parents for giving a trophy to every kid no matter the result win or loss)

Unless you're at a Skywest INC, a different regional or can check one of two boxes white males can't, you might want to mentally prepare yourself for what's about not to happen to your career. You're not the only one TRULY TRYING to move on. Let's talk in two years and see how you feel at Mesa. Do research on who has left Mesa for a legacy in the past 6 months.

If you're a quitter and the proposal sucks, vote yes for that extra pop tart a year. So many more have sacrificed so much more than we ever could. Goodnight all.

Well actually 3% of the 70% of civilian new hires, or 11 pilots.
