Now I don't advocate anyone go pee on the guard shack but don't expect a job from this "deal" It's a carrot to keep people here, just as the SSP was, not a great path to mainline. It payed off for some but just as many will be left here and "TFAYD"
Yep - Flows, CPPs, DGIs, ETD, SSP... KFC - whatever you want to call it. They are all mechanisms to recruit and retain pilots at the regional level who are otherwise qualified to go to the maineline partner. If the majors really wanted you - they would have you.
