Great mistakes is in no position to exist at all. Friend over there just got 1000TPIC and is bailing ASAP. Every line and chief pilot are flying in the right seat to cover trips and there is no way they will get a 135 certificate. Can't wait for this place to close.

they dont pay for training, or flight to the interview or any costs associated with it. Training contract, last i knew was $7,500 and 15 months.
Seriously, with the new 1500 hour rule dont go to GLA, its not worth it. tell your buddy to respect himself a little more and get a job at a different regional. any of them is twice as good as GLA. Its not like the good ole days where people would be hired at 250TT, upgrade at 1500, fly for a year and bail with 1000TPIC. They are losing EAS routes, attempting a makeshift 135/121 combo cert. Seriously, GLA is possibly the worst career path right now, unless you are ok with making minimum wage or less and maybe get an upgrade to capt. That and you will likely put yourself in debt if you are lucky enough to not already be.
