Oh yeah? What are your sources? All kinds of cnx pay? How many do you need?

Cancelation pay was the last thing TSA gave up during their last negotiation. I doubt they gave it up so easy to you

If I had to ***** and moan, yeah maintenance issues can be annoying. Big whoop. Do not base your career decisions purely based on stuff you hear on this website. It has the squeakiest of the squeaky wheels.
A few guys do get through unaffected. Not too many though, its more of an exception. And many just don't know what they are missing because they never worked for a decent airline. Most are fine until they suddenly find themselves on the street. It's not a good place to go, nor is TSA.

This is easily one of the most cringe worthy posts I have read on here.

the truth is there is no good regional out there. all the time till pilots bash each other on the forums thats how it will be. it gives power to the management. hopefully one day pilots will realize that, unite, and stand up together for their rights....its depressing but its true...be the best at what you do, get some hours and go somewhere else.
look what works for you and go for it...you are the only one who knows your final goal and how to get there.

At Gojet, it is not only how the company treats its people and how they have no problem stabbing you in the back if the calculation comes out that they will save a few dollars. The union has no experience, no backbone, no power, no backing from its members. They might like to do things but they don't know how to protect their own members. They don't know how to properly advise their members. The members are sitting ducks and the company knows it. The company has no fear that the union will take any action. Any action the union does take is ineffective and laughed at by the company. Sad but true.

Amen. I'm here but been here too long to get out. I refuse to start over at another regional when I'm 6 months from upgrade here. So for now I go to work for 4 days and put up with whatever crap I have to deal with then go home. Just pretty much do what anybody else at any regional should be doing. Get your time and get out as soon as you can. Anybody at a regional for more than 5 years I feel sorry for. Hopefully that doesn't become me.

SkyWest or TSA should be your options.
