The majors know this. They aren't awarding jets without looking down the road at staffing plans. They know Mesa is far behind the industry.
If new jets are awarded, how could Mesa possibly staff them?

Just to clairify before the year ends:
Sick time accrued does NOT roll over, right?
Don't use it you lose it?
They're offering to buy back up to 8 hours due to perfect attendance for Nov; I have 24 hours just sitting there-
should I use it to get out of a trip?
I've never called in as a lineholder- if you do, is it one call on day 1 or so you have to keep calling in each day? (Only time I ever called in sick, and I was legitimately down and out, was when I was on reserve)

I believe that is what 20sx was referring to.

Back then Mesa was only operating 30 E-175s, all owned by United. Supposedly, that is the reason Mesa had to scramble to finance the additional airframes in spite of allegedly being "broke."
