That being said I don't see furloughs foreseeable future.
Seriously, where's the carrot?

Other regionals offer better starting may, (SkyWest, Air Wisconsin, Horizon, Commutair, Piedmont, etc.), a faster upgrade, (PSA, Silver, Seaborne), and others offer up to a $12,000 signing bonus, (Eagle, Silver).

Why would anyone choose Republic? Are there that many pilots who really, really, really want a GSO, IND, or SDF base? Where's the carrot?
