You sound like one of those trust fund babies who has never held a real job outside of aviation. Congrats though, I'm sure everyone in this thread who works for Mesa is second guessing their career choice solely because you chose to grace us with your presence in here.

Well done sir, anything else we can do for you today?

This crap cracks me up! Can you seriously point me towards the "chosen regional"? Sure Mesa is on the bottom of the contract scale but that is because they just went through CH11 bankruptcy. Looking at all the regional contracts they all seem to suck equally in one way or another. Unless you are looking at staying at a regional for your career, they are simply all the same. Crap pay, crap reserve rules (if any), and so on. Find a regional that has a base near you, get your time, and get out.

Not following you… the bankruptcy hadn't anything to do with the vote. NOT flame: the contract reads today because Mesa pilots have never had enough leverage to force management to negotiate improvements… along with the obvious management's "inability" (i.e. unwillingness) to offer anything with substance.

Even if they own the planes, even if they pay for the fuel, even if they sign whatever you want them to sign...believe me, Delta will find a way to screw over whichever regional is dumb enough to take this flying.

Believe me--it's best for all of our careers if we don't do business with them, even when factoring in the short-term boost of a few extra CRJ Captain slots.
Delta, we'll Comair you whenever we can!!! Signed Richard "Dick Analson" Anderson.

Flaps, your words are so true.
