BeatNavy,
Fantastic primer. I was unaware of the fixed cost model; FFD. Your explanation clears things up, weaves a complicated web, and then suggests an unholy alliance between the ALPA and the Majors.
Off to Phoenix tomorrow to start training. Thanks to all who offered constructive comments and direction.
Kind Regards,
Judge

Mesa is summoning people to court for breaking the training contract. Thoughts?

I.e.--is Mesa sending people a "summons"/letter threatening legal action and demanding payment? Or are they actually filing a complaint against you in a court of law, resulting in a notice being served to you by a process server?
Sounds like it's time to pony up a couple hundred bucks for a consultation with an attorney. If I were in your shoes, I'd definitely rather shell out for legal advice/representation than pay Mesa without questioning the legality of it first!!!
Go talk to a lawyer!!!

With that said, I hope you get involved with ALPA with that background, and I hope after you finish training you're able to delve into airline labor law/RLA issues, etc. here, because this pilot group desperately needs more people in the union who know about about stuff other than flying--esp the law.

Also I apologize for ranting about old guys and the relevance of their past experiences earlier--from what you're saying on this thread, it sounds like it might actually be good to have you around (can't hurt to have a judge/attorney in the pilot ranks).

Can you clarify what you mean by "summoning to court?"
