I don't want rumors!!!
Starting pay is actually $22.81 in the Saab OR CRJ.
All furloughed pilots have been recalled. About 98 accepted (out of 220)

The company does not suck. We took a hit in the shorts for pay and some benefits due to the bankruptcy, but we will get it all back by the end of the TA. The company used to be top notch, today, I'd say we are just better than average. Lots of new people here in scheduling and planning and such, so we all need to learn to work together again.

Like others have said, we are in growth mode as of today. There are lots of other regionals that can get you based in the midwest, so look at your options and decide what is best for your situation.
