XJTs lousy attempt to steal pilots from other regionals. Maybe it's a "deal" for pilots who left after COMAIR, FREEDOM, ACA/FlyI, or corporate guys that want to get back in the game but don't mind joining a shrinking company. Maybe it works for them, but I can't wrap my head around why a pilot from any other regional would come to the conclusion that it's worth 7.5 grand + 22k guarantee to sit 12 months reserve at XJT.
oh, and today I counted 5 RJ2s at A-tech with titles removed, presumably awaiting new homes. Ready for the Respect You Deserve?
