Expressjet. Heres how though

1) Must live in base (Day trips and ability to pick up some great trips that pop up in open time at last minute)

2) Work the system as much as you can (30/7 drops, RA days that they cant use you and musty work on vacation)

3) With two weeks of vacation I was able to get paid 130+ hrs for Jan, and 140+ hrs in Feb

After reading all of your posts I actually respect your opinion very much and I think you have some great points. I agree with 90% of what you say, the problem is I am still willing to take the risk and continue flying for a living. I also have a girl whom is smart enough to know that she can never rely on me alone financially for a family income ( at least at this point), so she makes her own money
