You are correct.

Hey guys just a couple quick questions.

For training they said business casual with a collared shirt, would a polo shirt be ok? I'm assuming it would be. Also I was thinking of bringing a backpack to training to carry the ipad,notebook,etc to the training center each day. Did other people do that in the past? Just wondering if that's too unprofessional for training. Thanks!!

On a related note, during training the sim instructors never put stuff in people's logbooks, just the training folders. Would those training folders be considered sufficient record keeping of 3 takeoffs/landings in preceding 90 days?
This is stuff that should have been covered during Indoc, but since they shortened it, it got left out. 121 is a totally separate animal. 61.57(e)(2) exempts 121 PICs from any of the 61.57 recency of experience requirements. 121 has its own rules. A couple of things to note on this point though. 1) you are not required to be instrument current as an FO, only the PIC needs to be instrument current. 2) The exemption for 121 PICs only applies to operations conducting for the certificate holder (121 or 91).

In other words, so long as you complete all required 121 recurrent events, you are qualified to sit right seat in a Mesa CRJ. However, this may not keep you current for your own recreational part 91 flying you may do.

The FAA never requires that all of your "logbook" be kept in one neatly bound little book. So long as you can produce the appropriate records when required, they don't care how you keep it. As a result your 121 training records count as a part of your logbook. I hope you made or got a copy of your records after you were done with IOE, before your IOE check airman sent your training folder in. If not, that's ok, you can always get them later, but I always like to have a copy for myself. I also made copies for all the people I signed off for IOE so they would have them.

Polo shirt is just fine. Quite a few wear them for training events.

Is this Mesa's fault? Are they struggling to organize the transition?

Thanks for that explanation dashdriver, appreciate it. So you were a sim instructor?

And is there a source on this DFW thing? If true it'd really hose everyone prepping for a move, unless you're in CLT and want to stay there.

I had that same problem. I didn't even get the initial domicile award email sent out to the class. You have to send a message to the TAC help desk through the employee intranet and they will add you to all of the email lists.

DFW IS opening. American Airlines is not ready for us at the airport. It is not Mesa's fault. The delay has to do with gates and planning.

If you're having this problem and using an iPhone/iPad.. Go into your mailbox settings and set "mail days to synch: no limit". I believe the stock setting is only a week or two, so it hides all the old stuff by default.
