I’m sure they will after they kill off ASA/XJT there.

Word on the streets is co domicile DAL and DFW. I guess DAL depends on how much more they can expand the Alaska flying. Gate space is limited.

DFW is the most JR base for Mesa, Mesa training is fair, not compared to others like SkyWest. Mesa's interview was a phone screen as it is our culture that your interview is training. Mesa was good to me and has an amazing and awesome pilot group. Also, 300% for open time pick up (great if you live in base). In my opinion, I feel the WO's are nothing special we have had mesa guys go to southwest, and spirit that i know of personally. Overall, choose your poison that works best for you, Good luck!

Mesa pays a few dollars an hour behind Envoy but at the end of the month you will make 2 to 3 times more at Mesa. There are FO’s at Mesa making more per month than Envoy Captains. Mesa pays 200 and 300% to fill open time. They pay 12 hours pay to come in and sit for a reserve period on your day off.

That’s why it would be a co domicile... put the 175 pilots in DAL and the CRJ pilots in DFW.

The fact that Mesa is offering 300% to entice people to fly is not a good sign for the health of the airline. Not to mention losing 175s etc... Mesa is probably the last place I would recommend right now DFW or not.
