Mesa?!

I used that same exact logic when the Army NG was trying to get me to reenlist. When they started throw re-up bonuses at me, I told them I'd pay more than that to not have to deal with them anymore.

TSA is the CFI grad school for chautauqua...but hey, we're not mesa...life over here honestly isn't that bad, even the guys who left here for CHQ or EXJ didn't really look at Trans States as being all that bad...except for a couple, and they had good reason...if the company creates an alter ego to screw us and our alter ego however...well,

That might have been true in the past, but I know of no regional that would not count SP time today. MEI time would be better time (I have tons of it) but it may not make sense to spend years pursuing that right now.

Thats the whole regional airline industry today. The "regionals" like skywest, expressjet, mesa ect... are not feeders from small town to large hubs, sure they do pleanty of that too but the real growth has been from outsourcing for major airlines. They fly major airline routes in the middle of the day. They are small jet providers exactly what the boyd group calls them. So you guys think that mesa is screwing you guys, the majors think you are screwing them, everybody thinks skybus is screwing everybody. Its all one big cycle of mutual backstabing for guys that want to get paid to fly. So go ahead and point the finger at mesa but there is someone pointing at you too.

Im just making a generalization about one of the main themes running through the APC forums. Its true isnt it? There are the southwest haters thinking that southwest destroyed thier company and has brought things down and those giving themselves indigestion over skybus. Those that think skywest is keeping things down by not going union......I could go on but you know how it is. Im not saying I like mesa or there arent victims of the industry just that people seem to like to blame others at other airlines for why they dont have it better.
