lol as opposed to Republic? Everytime I try to have a conversation with a republic guy it gets weirder and weirder. Why do you guys always sound like you're falling asleep on the radio? Ill take a little hairgel and some self confidence any day over the classic "just rolled out of bed" look with the shirt tail hanging out, unshaven, with crooked hat on practically falling off. But I digress.....

All I can say is at XJT, at least on the ERJ side, you are pay protected for EVERYTHING, period. Dropped trips for cancelations, training, FBO, ect. Your guarentee is protected in a vacation month (you can fly 30 hours and get paid 75). I just got FBOed off a two day and picked up another two day over top at 150%. I credited 30 hours for the two days. These little perks of a decent contract start to add up after awhile.
