Threatening a pilot with a $12k loan if they quit is reason enough to not go there.

Notice that other carriers that don't have attrition problems don't have training contracts. XJT doesn't. Does Skywest? Comair? American Eagle?
RAH has a larger and longer training note than Mesa. Not defending Mesa because I think they are pond scum. Just remember you saying RAH was one of your picks where to go yet theyt have a training note????
