Question for Dash-8 Drivers
#31
And that is written... where exactly? You're not allowed to move CHECKED bags from the cargo compartment to the passenger compartment but you MAY move already screened carry on bags (which have a special ALREADY SCREENED neon green tag in united) from the cargo compartment to the passenger compartment.
Not only would I say this in public, I would do it in front of a safety inspector grinning the entire time. Besides, most of the time they're not even in the cargo compartment yet -- they're on the rack.

Neither am I (trying to get in a ****ing match) and those limitations are not in Mesa's GOM or OpSpecs. That was my point -- just because an airline does something differently does not make that "WRONG". So please try a more diplomatic course in the future right off the gate... maybe something like 'Wow, thats interesting... at PDT we're not able to do that.' rather than something like 'YOURE GOING TO FAA VIOLATION HELL!!!'

I seem to remember that QX's 200's had a max ZFW of 32400. I'm surprised that you guys are usually able to take a jumpseater then - maybe your average BOW's are less but don't Mesa's 200's have APUs? They weren't installed on the QX 200's and max ZFW was still a problem and that's with 400 more available lbs.
Max landing weight was 34500 - you could always take 2100 lbs of fuel + burn + 100 lbs for taxi. It's been a little while now, but that's one of those numbers I will probably always remember
