Training Contracts

[CX880]

I'm trying to apply at a few regionals. I'm just wondering which regionals have TCs. I'm assuming if it's not mentioned on their sites then they don't have them right? I know mesa and colgan have contracts, are there any other ones?

 

[planejockey]

ExpressJet, Air Wisconsin, Trans States, blow jet, and Pinnacle are the ones that come to mind

We don't have one.

I thought TS doesn't have one.

[planejockey]

thats what I meant to say, those guys dont have one. Sorry for the mix-up

 

[jacksjj]

RAH has one.

 

[pgcfii2002]

Mesa, Colgan, Great Lakes.....

 

[Master Shake]

ExpressJet has no contract.

As a general rule if they have a training contract, run away. They have it because they are a crappy place to work and you can get hired by a better carrier just as easy.

Mesa has a contract? If anyone should have a contract, it should be for Johnny's nugget

Amen to that! Could not have said it better myself.

RAH has one.

Isn't it a 2 year contract? Must be twice the "fun"

3 year contract at Horizon

Really??? I thought Horizon was one of the better regionals out there.... according to conventional wisdom on FI since Horizon has a TC this must be a horrible place to work at.... but then again, who ever said there was wisdom on FI....

Trust me there is wisdom out there, you just have to sift through all the B.S.
