If you always make plans based on the way things are you will always be surprised when things change.

Weren't you XJT's biggest cheerleader in 2019? Get in and fly a lot, upgrade times are dropping, etc? Doesn't that sound similar to what you're selling at Mesa now?

true.. but it won’t take long for him to get the necessary experience to then be a check airman.

On some level you can .. airlines introduce new types and somebody has to be a check pilot. Yeah, they go to school, but presumably with enough background you can quickly become a check pilot on a new type

FO’s please do not pick any of that flying up. The company has made this mess through their own incompetence and it’s on them to fix it. Not you. The company needs to learn the consequences of its own actions.

Lol. It’s so great that everyone is leaving. I didn’t even think a company like Mesa could have such cheerleaders.

considering I moved up like 100 spots just this month, I’d say everyone is leaving. I’m leaving as well. Please tell me I’ll regret my decision, cause you sound like a child who’s upset that no one wanted to come to your birthday party. “They’ll rue the day!!!!”

I haven’t heard of a single person making a lateral move. I’ve heard cargo, lcc, and legacy, that’s it. Certainly no regional to regional moves at all.

What's a weekend?

I’m happy for everyone moving on. Weirdly enough it’s mostly FO’s. Me measly 3,100 TT isn’t getting any serious bites yet so put in a good word for us fellow Mesa folk.

Its really luck of the draw. I’m nothing special, with around the same TT, no TPIC, and I got the call. Keep plugging away.
