Morale seems to be going down at XJT. I don't know why so many go there unless it's that it's what everyone else has done for years. It's not somewhere I'd hate to be stuck at, but there are better looking options in the current market. We will see how true that is when I pull the trigger.

I have yet to hear of any future orders of large RJs by XJT. It's no secret that CRJ200s and 145s are on their way out. Things look bleak.
I was "told" which is probably wrong information that I did not verify, that XJT is operating on a continual renewing two year agreement with united for 50 seat flying.

. No such thing as overprepared in my books. What you don't use in an oral or sim ride, may or will eventually be used on the line at some point.

A bad choice can have one pilot left seat in a E175/CR7/9 and the other reserve FO getting short called for 7 legs outta ATL in the CR2
