Mesa Shrinking...
Mesa shrinking the fleet, and moving it to China. :p Sounds like a winning plan.
"This month's traffic numbers were impacted by a number of issues most notably a 50% year over year reduction of flying at Air Midwest, the elimination of Dash 8 flying in our Delta Connection operation, the reduction of 5 CRJ200s from our USAIR Express operations and the reduction of nine 50 seat aircraft from our United Express operations. We believe the reduction of turbo prop and 50 passenger regional jet flying will enhance profitability long term as these aircraft are replaced with larger, more efficient regional jets. In addition, the impact of severe winter weather presented some operational challenges throughout the month, especially for our operations in the mid west and north east of the country," said Mesa Chairman and CEO, Jonathan Ornstein. http://www.reuters.com/article/press...08+PRN20080107 Its funny how they complain about the weather every month and quarter. Mesa's the only airline that deals with weather, right? |
Ya, only Mesa has weather, and only Mesa gets rid of / looses planes and flying..... to be replaced with bigger jets?????

survival of the fittest my friends....................

Exactly how many threads is this now with Mesa in the title........

still if/when mesa goes down i cant help but feel terrible for the 2000 (or so?) pilots who will be forced to start over. but i guess on the plus side it would solve a big part of this regional shortage when guys sign on elsewhere
