In fact, Raytheon will probably just forgive the debt because Lakes is doing the "right thing" by flying people who are too lazy to drive 2 hours.

This was/is a huge concern for me. You get stuck with a 15 month contract that requires you to come back if you get furloughed. If they lose planes and have to furlough and you go elsewhere you best either A. Save $7500 to pay Lakes or B. Get ready to go back to Lakes.
