I tend to agree given the situation right now. But, doing something is better than nothing. If a pilot is reported and we continue to have a great track record in the US for regional flying, then nothing will happen. But one accident will change all that. And, the accident doesn’t have to be with Mesa —- any regional —- and regional flying will be under a microscope.

An ASAP report is probably better because it goes to the FAA.

On the Ejet in IAH on the Seniority List (which includes pilots in management, union, training department, etc.), the number of Captains stagnated at 252. No growth and little attrition for the left seat. The number of First Officers grew from 298 to 309.

Based on open time this month, we are still short of Captains on the Ejet in IAH.

You suckers are actually working the 200%, this pilot group is its own worse enemy.

Unless FO’s are being pushed off of IOE on the Ejet, it looks like they have some tight days towards the end of the month coming up. They are still begging for CA’s on the Ejet to pick up open time.

After this summer, if the pilot growth continues on the Ejet, they should be able to drop 200%.

Definitely looks like hiring of Mesa Ejet pilots has stalled in the past month.

Looks like a few more 175 routes out of IAD coming up, not much for the 700 though.

Where do you see more 175 flying out of IAD in this article? I just see the 175 flying out of EWR for Republic and the 200 flying out of IAD for SkyWest EAS contracts.....

Good point thanks

It’s pathetic we can’t get more seasonal flying though......

United hiring is heating up. For the first time in years, the training department is running new hire classes over this summer.
