I'd say neither. People have a good reason to hate on Mesa, proper grammar and spelling skills are important, and you don't need PIC time to get hired at a major. Networking, a quality education, and being a normal person gets you to a major. Just ask the guys with 15k 121 PIC how much that time is helping them get out of here.

When was that? Every comparison i have ever seen always had Mesa at the bottom

I guess you don't understand how "on par" does not mean "the exact same". I will direct you to this article from back in 2014 when I was hired.

As a new pilot (private, private-multi, working on instrument), I'm starting to research career choices and get a feel for the industry. However, one thing keeps popping up... What the heck is TA?

'Mr. Mad Bro' would be correct. And I don't even have two "bacheloers".

Three beers deep, basking in the sun and moving on to one of the legacies. Anything but mad my special buddy.

Holiday Inn, Sterling. I don't know if they have a good crew rate.

I used to stay at the Marriott at the airport. It was $55/nite. The van will take you to the Marriott Suites where there's lots of food, restaurants, movies, bars, etc.

Crown Plaza was my backup, because it's more expensive.

Tentative agreement. Means Union and company negotiators have agreed to a contract. And now it must be ratified or rejected by the pilots.

Yet you are still here and still mad mad mad. And I believe the last time I misspelled that it was "batchelors" not "bacheloers". Nice try though.
