Dude, I suffered at Eagle for a long time (7 yrs). You can fool yourself all you want that you will bail to a mainline with all that right seat time. But then again, you probably still work there, so I can see the glass half full attitude. I'm trying to convince this young fella' to go somewhere, anywhere, but Eagle. Pay is horrible, upgrade is horrendous, not to mention all the 5-leg/9hr overnights. The people you work with are awesome and I still have many friends, but if I can convince ONE pilot to take another path, my job is done.
