In the interest of the safety of the flying public, TSA should be grounded until they can prove their maintenance is at an acceptable level and then they should remain under EXTREME scrutiny for an extended period of time. This may be the next accident to give the regional industry a black eye, only now it would involve bad maintenance, but still drag down the FAA's lack of oversight the way Buffalo did.

Also, we don't want your high and mighty sympathy. Don't gimme that "I feel for you" bull, thinking we're putting our lives at risk anymore than you are in your 145. To tell us that means that you don't respect our decision making skills and insinuates that we are weak minded pilots willing to fly anything that MX tells us to.
I "feel" for you that someday you may get knocked off your pedestal.

to the eagle person-- are you freaking serious? our planes are so bad? i hate to stoop to your level, but how many fatalities has eagle had based on either MX or pilots- now run that figure for TSA-- Do you wish to rebut? didnt think so.
why must people say that they or their airline is better than any other airline ( unless it's gojet) we all work for crappy airlines thats like slaves saying "my massir is better than yo massir" your still slaves you freaking morons!
SKIPPY-- get a life

Only reason why I wouldn't want my dog on TSA is because he'd be delayed or cancelled due to maintenance, not because I'd be afraid he'd die.
He may be dehydrated as well due to the fact that we have no APU's in the summertime.
BTW, according to our training department, the 10 jets we got from Eagle weren't in that great of shape as when we got them either.

A lot of things can be seriously wrong with aircraft that pilots are unaware of. It has apparently taken another set of eyes and the aircraft taken apart to find these issues. Because of this (things PILOTS cannot see), I would not fly on TSA and forbid my loved ones from doing so.
