Read the fine print. I think it’s a year or two or you pay back the initial training cost. And there’s a non-compete for companies that operate within 500 (?) miles of Memphis, if I remember correctly (I didn’t fly for them, but knew many who did).
better options out there

non-compete sucks. I guess they must not fly pilots a whole lot if that’s there.
Thanks for the help!

Preciate the info. I always love how students think their CFIs know everything and then I turn around to the guys and gals in the industry and am immediately schooled. Thanks again

Not in this market!
Why on God's Green Earth would ANYONE sign a training contract in what is the absolute best pilot market in decades?
And possibly for recurrent too? Are these people smoking crack agreeing to that?
WHY??
Even the bottom feeder regional airlines like Gojet and Mesa don't make pilots sign training agreements.
