It’s not like you can get a side job while in training for 3-4 months. Either way just surprised that’s all, kinda bust my bubble a bit. No way I can afford going here.

I was in training a little over 2.5 years ago and the pay was $300 a week. Had to go out on medical leave and short term disability which was only 60% of that. Now they want to rescind my CJO because the FAA is taking to long to get me approved to fly again.

Do the research. Look at your total compensation over your expected years there. Look at the odds of going elsewhere.
