Having said that, regionals know they're a stepping stone, and that their pilots will move on someday, but not inside of a year.

Biggest thing is, will a company choose to pursue, enforce & collect on a training contract from a regional pilot who has most likely no savings & a ton of debt....
Is it wise for a business to spend $20k on a $25k contract & recover maybe $5k to $10k...?? depends, if you ticked off your DO real bad...
But the real damage which a company can do is on the prev employer verif form. They could mark NO on the question "Eligible for Re-Hire" and that in itself will be a big NO-NO at most majors...

FedEx, Delta, Express Jet, and Compass all use the same test. They all have different pass scores with the exception of Compass and Delta––their pass scores are identical.
