I went from Air Midwest to Comair and could be happier. Had one good year before things started to go south at Comair. I'm on my way out for NetJets in two months.

FYI, upgrade at XJT is running 21-24 mos.

there've been lots of people at transstates making the lateral move over to chautauqua, think it has to be the living in STL still, flying the 145 still, getting better pay, QOL, and a 2500 signing bonus. Same time, the way the upgrade is at TSA right now, it could be a "questionable" move, but that's before street captains are hired.

Quite a few have left Lakes to go to SkyWest and Republic lately...hope that it works out for them...they're doing what is best for them, but it's not a move I plan on making.

PDT to XJT here.

TSA was my 2nd airline and I am now at SKW. Much better:cool: . One thing to think about is the time required to upgrade. TSA was (could have changed) requiring 4000 TT minus 800 in company (3200TT). SKW wants 2500 TT. Mesa and Great Lakes are down to 1500 TT (ATP mins). Every airline has issues...so the grass is always greener on the other side. HAHA

if ya stayed at colgan you probably could be upgrading soon huh?

Probably. But I'm sure he'd rather be a happy FO based at home versus a disgruntled SF3 CA constantly getting f'd over by Colgan.

seems like hes getting some good time off every month at xjt. hes on this board more than i am, and i really have no life

considering some buddies in my initial class havent heard a thing bout upgrade....................., that is the ones that are still there.which is like 2, not to mention the pay is soooo much better here, and I the things we can do to our schedule here................ Im going to ITaly for almost two weeks and I still have a 85+ hr line value..........
