You don't think the F/os talk to each other, come on man for the past month every F/O I spoke with and some I know is leaving. I have been here since February and there's only 56 F/O below me. At one time it had 73 so you do the maths , I don't spread rumors check it out yourself on the the seniority list

He's absolutely right....things will get much worse before they get better.

Management does not have the money or the answers for what's to come next. Good luck

They just don't have the domicile because it goes against their (in my opinion non-sense) outstation base system. Also, we have to remember that the main reason we got the additional 18 E-175s was because Republic was restructuring and fixing their staffing issues. Once they are up and running back again they will be in a good position to take their airframes back. But then again, I presume that Mesa's performance will have to decline due to staffing issues, before United takes the flying away from us.
