Although they would not admit it publicly I am wondering if part if this is they just could not get enough pilots to expand their route network as much as they did. They do still have a 1 year training contract that they say is because they are paying for your CTP class. Other regionals just do this with no strings attached. I believe their upgrade is also longer than many of the jet regionals. Additionally florida summers in an aircraft with no APU cannot be fun. Former pilots have told me they bring a sweat towel with them. That said overcapacity is still the main issue.
