Mesa Street Capt Mins
 
Just a curiosity more than anything....

I hear Mesa is hiring CAs off the street... anybody have an idea what their mins for the T-props would be?

So if I have 250 TT, 25 Multi, and three brain cells am I over qualified?

I figured I'd get some of that dished out. Anybody else?

A friend of mine got the Dash 8 out of Denver with about 1800 TT 800 multi. He flew bank check out of Seattle (single pilot) for about a year.

Sorry man, I didn't mean to stray here. But I'm kind of sure 1000 PIC is about the only min... I'm not too sure on the specifics, or even if I'm right.

Well, I went in as a street CA for them a while back and the B-190 was just straight ATP mins as you have to have an ATP to be a CA. The dash I think fell under ICAO mins which would require the extra PIC time.
One thing to think about though is the extreme likelyhood of getting violated as a New 121 guy and a CA. I took that route and it almost gave me ulcers. I got out clean but some other I worked with didn't. Something to think about. Remember Mesa has the FAA on speed dial for turning ppl in.

Good God!? is that for street captain?! Those are the numbers i had when i went to Eagle (to be a SAAB FO) many moons ago. I was by far the lowest time guy in the class. I would not want to be in the back of that DH8 for his first 500 hours or so. Geez?!:eek:

What are some common violations that new 121 captains are likely to commit? Any more likely than a new 135 captain? Why would Mesa have an interest in reporting violations of their captains?
