I know Mesa, Colgan, and Lakes require that you sign a contract that locks you into that airline for 12-16 months or so and if you leave before that then you owe them thousands of dollars. I am wondering how they work.
I hear Colgan and Mesa have a sort of prorated kind of deal where if you leave after a month you pay nearly all of it but if you leave after 11 months then you only pay like 11/12ths of it or something? If you lose your medical are you supposed to then pay them for not being able to work? What if you get fired for no-shows, they cant hold you to the contract then right?
Let's say you get apply at Great Lakes and also Horizon and you hear from lakes first and take the job then after two months of flying at Lakes, Horizon offers too. Can you just perform bad on the job so they fire you and get out of the contract?
Who else requires you sign a training contract?
Can you just sign Donald Duck, or scribble something illegible and say it isn't your signature on the contract?
