Dont CHASE a quick upgrade either, things in this industry change faster than a moving cold front, if you insist to go to Mesa after you have been warned then what can we say, its a free country.. Just be prepared to be pretty unhappy...

I'm not chasing an upgrade... what I said earlier is that one of my best friends has been with mesa almost 2 years and HE is about to upgrade. I just thought it would be cool if we had the same domicile and/or could bid some of the same lines.

Mesa's also set to lose a lot of flying with UAL and US in the next few years. That will increase their upgrades.

Dude Mesa Has about 1600 pilots the chances of you getting the same domicile may be good but the chances of you flying the same trips are pretty slim, and besides Mesa will jerk you around even if you have a line with your buddy....Like we have said.. you have been warned.. so take your chances

As much as it would be cool to fly together, you need to think about your future. You will make many friends elsewhere that will be fun to fly with. In my opinion you should go where it's in the best interest for YOU. If that means mesa, so be it. Good luck whatever you do.

Thank you very much for being the most positive person I've talked to all day!

How do I know I'll ever be ready? What when I get to 1000 hours a switch flips and all of the sudden I am ready? Sorry to sound sarcastic, but I just think that I can handle anything.
