Yes, I got it..... it's not quite "pay for training" as took place in the 90's, but give them a bit, there still rediscovering the past.

You do understand that as long as the stack of resume's is more than a dozen deep, and pilots are willing to sign said training contracts, then the impetus to change F9's $2700/month/new hire training contract is really not there for mgmt. Especially if your model is to be an ULCC which means your #1 focus as a manager is COST.
