So basically an advance on your pay to finish up your hours? That took three Undergraduates and at two universities (according to their promotional video) to come up with this genius plan?

I'm not sure why there's such a large branch up your ass, but imagine yourself not as a CFI and without a steady flying job to get the hours you need or a job that flies only 200 hours a year. This program would get the remainder of your hours in just a matter of days.

I'm sure it's the best thing since sliced bread. The promotional video mentions none of this.

The flight time is most useful for people short of multi time. My friends had very little and a week later they had 50 to qualify for the ATP. That's where it's real use is.

Upgrade for me is looking like 2.5 years from DOH. Month after month the pace remains the same for this. The current upgrade awards are for people at around 4 years. A year or two ago it was closer to 7. It's all about timing.

If you're referring to our bankruptcy, absolutely nothing changed in our contract.

I'm guessing he meant a signing contract in which case there is. It's prorated for 2 years.

The only contract I signed was one stating that if I left within two years that I'd pay my bonus back prorated. No training contract.

That said I already had an ATP so I don't know if it is the same for everyone.
