I guess it serves me right for taking advice from people with an agenda.
Well, they did lose almost half of the pilots in 07 and 08 and are current mesa refugees all over the regionals including Skywest, xjet, RAH, they do have the worst contract in the industry, and they might go into liquidation so in fairness to your friends they were probably on to something.
