United is really the only option left. AA is doing flows and military only 100 some street hired in 2016. Delta....goodluck unless youre military. United now starting the pref interview game. I really do hope Mesa gets a better contract soon. So many good dudes over there.

My humble opinion is that there is going to be 3 single file lines to flow/pref interview at the majors. Jb,nk, fdx, ups on the side etc. Mesa is unfortunately caught in the middle of AA and UAL.

But like i told all the guys i flew with. Job fairs, network, etc and youll be fine. Most Mesa guys have great personalities and if they could just get the interview they would nail it. Hard part is getting it.

If you flew single pilot IFR at an outfit like Ameriflight, Airnet, or Flight Express, and have 1000 hours, you are good to go for an upgrade at Mesa at mins.

So AH is our MEC Chairman, again? Terrific.

"The MEC will meet again in March for the Spring meeting to elect a full slate of MEC officers for a new two-year term." At what point does the pilot group vote for the officers, or do they vote themselves in ad infinitum?

Since I am new to all this does that mean that negotiations won't resume until after the MEC elections in the Spring?

Not necessarily. It has to be scheduled 135 to count.

We vote for lec reps. Lec reps elect the chairs.

If you are referring to FAR 121.436(a)(3) which then refers to 135.243(a)(1) then the above quote is incorret. You will still need to have 1000 sic 121

Refer to the Kelley letter response #2 for 135 cargo operations (whether scheduled or unscheduled)

Hmm. That's where that fishy smell is coming from.

Not sure but I think he was talking about the pilots skill level coming from single pilot ifr ops, not their legality.

Not only does it have to be scheduled, it has to be a passenger carrying operation.
