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.

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.

TSA was my 2nd airline and I am now at SKW. Much better . 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

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.
