No, Calmwinds was not right about everything. Most XJT pilots (including my self as a captain not an FO) are not jealous 1 bit of Mesa. I would say many are ****ed off to see a crap airline like Mesa getting more flying. There is a difference between being jealous and ****ed off... No, we are not losing anymore 145's. Those that go to Commutair this year have been replaced by another aircraft. He likes to boast how much more pay he gets than Skywest or Republic pilots. Thats only true because he has to pick up on his days off to get the 300 percent. Big difference there. Looks like you need to learn the facts as well..... I REALLY do hold out hope that you guys will stand firm on your next contract and pick up a "leading" contract instead of sub par. Unfortunately, Mesa has always settled for sub par.

Please explain the difference.

Being upset because you don’t have something that someone else has is the very definition of jealousy or am I wrong about that, too?

Please elaborate on what else I need to learn since you know so much about me and my situation.



FWIW, I know legacy ExpressJet used to be among the best regionals and couldn’t be touched. It was the place to go 8-12 years ago. Things change.

You and Calmwinds exemplify the problem with some Mesa pilots. They think others are "jealous" of their planes and flying. Perfect example of arrogance!

No, I trust you are not jealous and are simply a jerk FO recruiter at Xjet.

Junior, you got one thing correct!!! I'm not jealous!!!

Sorry though, I'm not an FO and I don't work as a recruiter. I enjoy flying the line too much.

Dude....stop. I agree with you, but arguing with this guy is futile. He’s incapable of seeing a perspective besides his own. He’s also just baiting you. He knows you aren’t an FO recruiter. Jacburn already told him who you are.

I don’t care what others thing or don’t think. I know Mesa has a reputation for being a scumbag company. We definitely have our shortcomings. Believe me I know all too well. Please elaborate on what you mean by “exemplify the problem with some Mesa pilots.” Are you capable of backing up anything you say or are you just trying to get a rise out of people? I’m guess I’m the foolish one for falling for it. Do you have any credibility, really? Should I take you seriously?

The fact of the matter is the 175 is superior to the 145 in every way and Mesa gets to operate some better routes than XJET and you just can’t stand it so you resort to acting like a petulant child instead of offering any kind of intelligent rebuttal. Please explain how this is not jealousy.
