From talking to line instructors the training program is geared towards 121 pilots. I heard last month that they hired a CFI to see how the CFI did. No clue but they used that CFI to see if they hired more if they would have problems

The amount of 121 experience from a variety of other carriers is one of the reasons why I like working here. A very non-confrontational environment where you can always learn something in conversation with those you are flying with, without any of the SJS-immaturity so prevalent in the industry these days.
