Please never compare us to Mesa again.

I can get back to phx about 4 years sooner as a mesa fo looking to upgrade...., never thought I would see OO and Mesa in the same sentence. Side note, if we are having issues with flaps settings, why is getting rid of the before takeoff flaps check a good idea ?

Reserve at OO is horrible for a commuter. A combo of long call and short call reserve. And, really uncommutable.

I never called SkyWest a prestigious regional. Those two words don’t go together.

That one comes and goes every few years. If you don't like the current policy, just wait a while and it will change back.

A notorious sim instructor once told me in CQ. "This SOP was written by hillbillies with pick up trucks flying Navajos and all the sudden they got jets."
