I'm confused, was I supposed to interpret the title of this thread as Eagle providing the course for low timers? Because if that's the case, I don't see where that says that in the post. Of course, it's getting late for me...

If it's not the case that they are paying for a low timer to go through the training, what's the news? I mean, ideally, wouldn't ANY regional prefer that you go through a RJ transition course? I mean, from the airlines' perspectives, a RJ course is nothing but positive, with the possible exception of having to explain to the interviewers why you, a 10k hour pilot, deemed it necessary to pay $8k for a transition course....
