I find that very hard to believe, unless you're looking at the expensive plan, which doesn't make any sense to purchase anyway.

Single guy coverage under the less expensive plan is $110 a month, and I've been pretty pleased with it thus far.

The same plan with Blue Cross and Blue Shield is $78. Not a huge savings, but decent. It depends on age, medical conditions, etc...

Ya he's way off base there. There is absolutely no way you could find a better plan on the market. $500 deductible, $1500 max out of pocket, cheap rx, $20 doctor visits including specialists for $110/month.

Thats fine. Look for yourself. Just send your plan info to a few providers and tell them that you want a quote for the same thing. If it less, then you can choose to save some $$$. If not, don't take it.

For me, I would waive the insurance, as I am currently on my wifes plan from her work.

Also, I am a TN resident, so no state income tax. I was wondering about that take home to just get a ballpark of takehome after its all done and over with. If I were to get hired, I was wondering what that would be while home between training cycles. Does the company have any restrictions on picking up side work?

How many planes on property? How many more to go? Any idea on the future of the -200s?

Number of Airplanes
January 1, 2015: 64
January 1, 2016: 101
January 1, 2017: 137
January 1, 2018: 150

The final composition will be: (35) CRJ 200's, (61) CRJ 700's, and (54) CRJ 900's

Currently adding at least 3 airplanes a month (a few months will have 4 deliveries). The last delivery will be in May 2017. We will accept our 30th CRJ 900 in May, and then start accepting the CRJ 700's that are coming from Envoy (and no, we are not happy to be taking airplanes from another company). After those 6 months of 700's come over, we take another 20 CRJ 900's, and then switch back to 700's.

The 200's are supposed to be here at least another 3 years.

Dude, do you even payroll tax?
Be smart though.
