At one time Mesa was stocked full of 50 seat airplanes too. And it has been a long hard tortuous experience since they started parking them. Several hundred pilots were put on the street. Several hundred more were downgraded. Several hundred endured grossly substandard pay for years. My life has been turned upside down because of it.

I'm glad we're through it now, and things are looking up, but I feel bad for pilots who hold seniority at companies that must face a similar metamorphosis. No gloating here, and besides, just about the time you think you can get away with gloating - BAM, the tables will turn again. One of the things that makes Mesa crews great in my opinion is that we don't act like d-i-c-k-s with black ties. No matter what happens, I advocate for being known continually as a down to earth pilot group. Go ahead and flame I don't give a crap!

Anybody know if they're going to run a standing bid to bring some more FOs into Phoenix anytime soon?

I don't think it's a hoax unless someone managed to hack in to airlineapps. I'm curious if anyone with no jet time or prior 121 experience got one?
