Mesa Training Contract
Anyone here bail on Mesa and now are being threatened to be taken to court for the "contract"? Just wondering if anyone has dealt with this (one way or the other) and what the results were. I know this topic has been discussed on here before, but I am looking for Mesa in particular. Thanks.

I just left there in November and went to RAH and haven't heard anything yet. I was only there 8 months. Ive heard both sides of the story, that they have followed up and they haven't. If you get a lawyer you pretty much could get out of it. B/c they won't waste the money on taking it to court. Good Luck! Shouldn't be a problem....lots of Mesa guys over here!

I heard they had a new "pay_as_you_fly" program...
Makes sense... how else can they pay the bills?
On a serious note. If they escalate, get a lawyer if only to protect your credit. The threat of them having pay additional settlements in court should quiet them down.
My advise is stay one year and then take your PC/PT and then quit.
Good Luck!

This is a great thread. I am curious how it turns out for the pilots that decided to leave before the one year contract was up. Please let us know. I know there are many of us looking at leaving before one year is up but with the low wages I feel like I am barely getting by and dont need to pay off a contract if I do decide to leave. Mesa has great crews working here but in my short time here I can tell the Company could care less about its people.

Gotta letter, and a phone call. We'll see what happens next. I would have stayed if the aircraft I flew wasn't cut. Nothing like working somewhere that they don't need you. I called the others in my groundschool, and they received letters and phone calls, but nothing else. The worst that can happen is a hit to the credit report, as far as I can tell. My pennence for the sins of working the regional world!

Got an un-certified letter stating "pay in full w/in 5 days or suit will be filed in Maricopa County Court". They have sent several certified letters, but I refused to accept them. That place blows, and treated me like poop. Total bill is less than $2,000.00, and I really don't want to pay it. Any thoughts?
