Also the Promissory note looks like a pay for training contract and I just couldn't bring myself to sign it. I may have been reading too much into it, but nobody could clarify it for me. Probably a great place to work if you are young enough, I only have about 10 years left to work and I decided I didn't need it that bad.
Well the secrets out. We've all been forking over $15K but were so ashamed we didn't want anyone to know so it's been the largest secret ever kept in the aviation industry...ever.
The "Promissary Note" is the portion of the training contract stating the amount and how it would be paid back should you leave before two years. If you read it, it's pretty self-explanatory. If you read too much into it...well...
