On the XJT side I would view it as buying a stock that has been beaten down. You may hit a home run and get in just before things take off. If things do turn around it will be pilots getting hired just prior who normally make out the best. If things don’t work out take your training someplace else and get a bonus in the process.
Blackhawk, very good advice. I'm avoiding TSH companies altogether, I feel like things are about to get ugly 'soon.'

That's exactly how I'm viewing XJT as it stands right now -- buying 'low' on a stock. It's part of what has piqued my interest in the company lately. Something has to give with SkyWest, Inc. ... either they dismantle the company or offload them. With United showing overt interest in XJT as of late, something is up, it's just anyone's guess as to what the short to long term plans are.
