I don't understand the hatred for Kit. I think the online service is well worth the $15 a month. The full membership seems a little steep (I don't need the full packet of info), I'll agree, but everyone loves to blame him for the state of the industry.
In our own crew room I see a post that says "find a copy of air incs salary survey to compare your contract", I guess Kit should do all this for free so that you can better your own livelyhood.
As for AEPS, they're out of business, or at least the business of doing seminars. Should Kit provide those for free too? We're lucky the airlines haven't reinstated the $50 per application thing, there's nothing preventing them from it. It's a supply and demand thing, just like every other industry in this country.
If $150 is too much to get face to face with an employer in this competitive market, then so be it, keep sending your resumes and posting in here "why can't I get a response from xyz?" It's a service, you pay for the service, don't like it? don't use it.
You can insult me all you want (the last one was that I was Kit Jr.), but I got a good bit of info from Kit's 'evil empire' and I'm currently employed with an airline that resulted from a visit to Kit's outrageously expensive...$150 whole dollars...seminar. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, a lot of pilots I see run around in cheap as Hush Puppy shoes, it's no wonder they bitch. I'm thankful. Good luck sending in those resumes.
