Cadet instructor bonus, how to return?
After reading these threads and talking to other pilots I'm seriously considering withdrawing my acceptance as a Piedmont cadet.
Does anyone know what the process for doing this is? I'm able and ready to return the instructor bonus money I've received.
Will I be blacklisted from AA? Do they even care about this kind of thing as I'm still a couple hundred hours from my ATP minimums and Piedmont hasn't paid for anything else yet.
Thank you in advance.

Don’t do it out of reaction to things you read here.
Today’s turd could be tomorrow’s diamond. The outlook could change quite fast if they announce more flow or pay increases/more bonuses for the veteran crew members. Wait until the last moment. Evaluate at that time and then decide.

Lol “more flow” don’t understand why everyone here gets all tied up in knots over plus or minus 1 flow a month. Outside of the small group that hit the timing just right, the flow is a joke. More flow should be on the bottom of the list this place needs.

Didn’t want to make a new thread so~
I’m a CFI right now, and I’m getting a job at a pilot mill to speed up my hours. I should be at ATP mins in about 13 months or so. I noticed the school i’ll be working at when I move is a partner with PDT. I’m just wondering if the cadet program is worth it or not. Ideally, my #1 choice for the regionals is PSA, but I think it’s good to also have back up plans. So I was thinking of doing the PDT cadet program as a backup Incase for some reason PSA doesn’t hire me when the time comes.
Any opinions?
