So out of the blue, I get a job offer.
ATP, 3 types, no speeding tickets, no checkride failures. I applied back in 2008 after my Comair furlough. My class date is late Summer 2014.
This is odd to me... are they not hiring now? Why would I be offered a job 8 months out?

By the way... I will never work for another regional.

You're going to have to send them a rejection letter, haha.

I came to that conclusion after my third Delta Airlines "regional reset"

Ignorant haters are gonna hate.




Actually I'm a FO at TSA, so obviously you need to get your facts straight before you start posting stuff. There are other airlines that have better work rules and pay than Mesa. For example compass or TSA.
"Obviously you need to get your facts straight before you start posting stuff"

Boy, isn't that ironic that you make a comment like that?

Better work rules and pay than Mesa? Well, considering I'm staring at a 12 month upgrade, please explain to me which regional beats $52/hour second year pay?

Do your research on what's happening here before you start running your mouth.

I'd sure rather be here than at a place with a fleet of obsolete 50 seaters. But, go ahead and argue that, I guess we've learned over the last 10 years that 50 seaters are really valuable huh?

Is this your first regional? Do you have the 1000 121 SIC? 1000 135 PIC?

No offense, I think all regionals beat your second year.

I get that, and wasn't looking for sympathy from APC readers. Merely stating a fact that many others may be quietly pondering while they work for a DCI carrier.
