Default Training Beards

Are they allowed? As in, I won't be on the line so the grooming standards don't apply. Upgrade training, that is.

that's funny, however a bad idea and winters over btw? If you're coming over to the EJET I do not recommend that at all. If your on the CRJ side you might be able get away with if in CPH or YYZ and with certain instructors but still a bad idea. EJET has a few Examiners and chief types that are pretty serious when it comes to compliance. You'll never know their schedule even if you tried.

Or possibly, be like a bunch of PSA pilots and state that you have a medical condition. They looked sharp uniform wise. However the beard just all "coiffed" on top of edged up and with a fade just threw me for a loop.

Default Mesa or Skywest?

I’m looking for guidance. I have offers from both Mesa and SkyWest for upcoming CRJ classes. QOL is most important to me. Currently live in Phoenix. Pay is low on my items to make a decision. Concerned with having to sign a training contact with Mesa. What would be the areas I should most consider before making a decision? I know nothing is a sure thing but would like informed input from those that have been there and done that.

I would leave the beard in if it's well kept and not too long.

I'm curious what the Mesa recruiters told you

In would go with Mesa. Being based in PHX will be short after training. also, the upgrade time at Mesa is much quicker.

Go to the airline that you don't have to commute to.

Commuting makes or breaks this job. Atleast as a regional pilot
