When do Mesa E175 classes start for new hires
Any word on when or if new hires will be hired on to the E175 at Mesa? Realistically is the upgrade going to be sub 2 years? Was talking to a CFI this morning at my local FBO who was saying he had a class date for the E175 with Mesa and that he'd be upgrading in 18 months...the guy was a bit full of it and only had a restricted ATP.

Surely Mesa aren't hiring on to the E175 though? They don't receive them for at least another 6 months, right?

Well once the predicted "600" new hires next year get on. Then 400 of them quit due to being displaced to Hawaii. Then the rest bailing for other regionals realizing the pay difference and current upgrade time is 11+ years...
About a 7 year upgrade.

No E-Jet new hires until next year. The airframes wont be on property until march. If I was to venture a guess I would say January or February. That being said, don't go somewhere because they fly a certain type of airplane. Go somewhere that works for you and your lifestyle.
