Sitting in a pool at an Airline. Thinking about going to Airnet but I only have 900 TT and 40 ME. What is this SIC program I am reading about? Does anyone have any info about this and Airnet; Pay, QOL, etc...

Yea, I put my stuff in today. I think it will be good and it will allow me to build up some time, gain some experience, then go back to the airlines when they are more stabe. Im in a pool at PSA and dont know if they are going to cut jobs? I guess we will find out soon.
