If they forgot to pay then they are scamming us again because we pay for KCM.

The training time is pretty much the same across the board, 2 to 3 months. Mesa's no exception. Unless Mesa gives you the ability to live in base, your commute will be far more worthwhile at any other airline. Times are tough here, and going to get even worse. Pay is half of what you will make anywhere else. The upgrade time is no faster than many of the others. If you want to fly a lot, you can certainly do that ... while still making only half as much. So, WHY??

Will that phone call ever come? If you go somewhere else, will you end up liking it so much, that you won't care anymore? You need a plan B, C,D,E,F...
I can tell you that I waited on one particular company way too long. When i Finally put out my resume everywhere I had 3 calls on same Day, another call the following week and two more when I was in grounschool for the company I was waiting on in the first place.. Don't be picky, hell if nothing else get the damn interview experience for the company you want to go to... GTFO of MESA before you don't have a job to go to...

People currently at Mesa have a completely different view than you. You too will be just like them. They were once like you... Glad I was given an opportunity to move on before things started to get bad.
Yes, you will fly a lot, perhaps even hold a line right away. If thats your only criteria, good choice. If you care about QOL, not so much...

The companies I originally wanted never called or said no, and the one with the best benefits, highest pay, arguably the best QOL, and coolest equipment said Yes. I agree, put your apps out everywhere, you might be skipping over a company where you'll be the happiest.

I see that PSA is doing a recruiting event in IAD early next week with on-site interviews (the Chief Pilot posted a video online today). I wonder if they are trying to take some Mesa pilots.

I mean, PSA's first year FO pay has got to be the same as 3rd or 4th year captain pay at Mesa.

Yes, actually, that is true. I think we are going out of our way to try to hire Mesa pilots next week. With us opening a DCA base (which is the most junior base), it makes sense.

I thought Mesa pilots were "bottom of the barrel." Why does PSA suddenly want YV pilots?
