Kept waiting for something positive to happen but it just kept getting worse. The contract is a promisary note for $20,000 that last for 2 years. It takes effect when you finish sim training. I have no personal experience with Skywest.
I have heard nothing but complete horror about RAH, and thats from FRIENDS who have/work there. Eagle clearly is on a rough and unknown road, coming here sure would seem like being furlough bait (for any new hires). Go to Skywest, those guys are so happy and smiley these days with their koolade milk mustaches. Seems to be a solid choice, for now. Honestly though those successful in this industry will tell you to NEVER make lateral moves chasing anything.
