With the current state of the regionals, go to one that is growing and has future propects, DO NOT go to a regional that has resorted to hiring 250 wonders just to cover their crazy attrition, not one person that has been hired in the past year at TSA was for growth, it has all been for attrition. Captain attrition is only going to get worse, can you say CQFOs, and/or street captains, no contract negotiations in sight, GOJET Growth, loosing the good overnight hotels, can we say Crowne Plaze at PHL. That was one of the only things I enjoyed about that job. The pay issue is kind of true, all regional pay is bad, but at places like SKYWESTyou have duty rigs which makes first year pay more there than second year pay at TSA. XJET, CHQ, AirWisconsin, and SKYWEST all pay at least 7 more dollars per year for second year pay than TSA. So yeah the pay is ****, but when your working for pennies, more pennies is better than less pennies. Yeah TSA is awesome. Good Call.
Hmmm...yep the united flying is gone, thats a FACT!! And that RIC base is closing, just like it was last month, last year, and the year before....whatever.
