Oh so only 2 months at 1200/month pre tax, and no perdiem. My apologies.

Beats being looked upon with scorn from fellow pilots. PSA, is a disgrace, and I'd rather go to a place that doesn't have have pay caps or the possibility of being stuck at a payrate after unsuccessfully interviewing at AA.

Wait wait, your going to make less at xjt over psa. Hahahahhahahaha you quoting one part of training pay, you are missing the boat loads more you will make over five years between the two, xjt winning. Plus you won't be considered the bottom and worst by your coworkers.

Welcome KMac6063, I am curious about your class date, Jul 21. Did they offer an earlier date. I understood classes were every 2 weeks.
Anyway I agree, enjoy time with family & just plan to study hard for several weeks when starting.

I'd have to agree with this post. It's like before going to prison. Just enjoy your last days before turning yourself in.

Oh wait I forgot. They pay for your passport renewal once every 10 years at xjt, or is that Skywest? My fault. Origional poster: don't waste time with PSA. Obviously their contract is so much better than ours.
