That would be a welcomed gesture by the line pilots.

Miami Air does have CASS. It has an agreement with many airlines for jump seating.

Hotel is not paid for by the company during training.

I worked at MAI for 5 years. The only good thing were the crews and the planes. Nice places we flew into but not enough $$$ to do anything since the perdiem is only $60 a day.. The people that stay behind, unfortunately they're too dip into it to make a move or have something in their closet. Including most management pilots and instructors/check airmen. Not generalizing but it's a fact. Most management pilots are scabs. They do have CASS with most airlines. However,u have to be within 2 hours of MIA intl airport. Can't commute. If u want to build 737 time, wrong place for it. U might block 300 hrs a year. U mostly limo or airline everywhere for zero pay. I can keep going on...ask me anything u want. I'll be more than happy to answer any questions. Ohhh almost forgot. I was also and instructor at MAI and got to see the dark side first hand. Don't forget, $18,000 training bond for 737 type for 3 years with literally no flying hours for

Who was the Chief Pilot in the 2005 time frame?

I remember some not so good comments about him and his little "barney rubble" look a like at an Aeroservices Job Fair in Miami.

Wasn't impressed....CP did seem like a SCAB.
