Bonus on first week of training??
While snooping around the different carrier profiles, I noticed XJT is giving the first $10,000 of the sign on bonus during the first week of training. I also noticed that there is no training contract. How are they not having people come in for the cash and then bail? Granted, that wouldn't look best on their job history, but it also got me thinking: Don't regional's do background checks AFTER starting class most of the time, in an effort to save money? What happens to those who for some reason get yanked out for not passing their background check?
Ouch. They must be really hurting for pilots.

I actually had already, but they’re not the most responsive so I figured I’d use this board for what it was intended, and see if anyone knew the answer.
