Yeah we are doing our best on the 175. The numbers have not been great. We are taking a lot of delays do to late bag sheets and under blocked routes. I have emailed management on this, they are working with United on adjusting them. We fly the 175 pretty slow for fuel savings but the block times have not been adjusted. All delays are put on the crew so a ACARS message is required to change it. With the tight turns and under block, it's real easy to get behind on some routes.Originally Posted by 3stripes
When are these idiotic rumors going to end? Mesa has been exceeding all expectations with the 175. Their performance numbers are better than both Skywest and Shuttle America for the ejets. The company is about 2 weeks ahead for the entry into service schedule for each aircraft. These rumors are total idiocy coming from people who can't stand to see Mesa expanding again, unfortunately many of those people are my former colleagues at regionals that don't face quite such a bright future.
