They go though all of that during ground school. I used to use a DC, but switched to the bose x. You can get them used for about $400 on ebay. Bose refurbishes even the most broken ones for $175.
On your initial uniform order, they pay for half of your outer garment (blazer, leather jacket), and half of your 2x pants order. Each year they'll pay for 1/2 of replacement pants. I bought 8 shirts, but 6 is probably plenty. Again, they walk you through all of that during ground school.
Sounds like a good deal on the suitcase. I don't suppose Mesa offers any Bose or Clarity Aloft discounts... Good to know about the uniform info too, and glad they walk you through it. Obviously I want to be prepared, but it's a little weight off knowing that.
Thank you again Navmode, I really appreciate it. First friend on these forums! Out of curiosity, where are you based? Maybe I'll get to fly with you sometime.
