It's simply not industry standard. Planesense is not really a stepping stone to greener pastures on the regional level, people either want the airline life or the corporate life. So regional pay really won't dictate the pay at Planesense.

About 10 days indoc, systems, regs, policy. Then FSI in DFW for 5 sims and a checkride. Graded events are at the end of ground school and of course the checkride.

That is a ridiculous assertion - you are way out of your league, Donnie. Anyway, the company wants candidates to live within 100 miles of their base, so if you live outside that and need to use air travel to get to an interview, you are expected to find your way there and pay for the hotel you may need for the night before. They also do offsite interviews on a semi-regular basis so you could always wait until they came to you.
