First off, the obvious discussion is "How did your airline begin?" As far as GoJets is concerned this is a land mine that I won't even start to discuss. Second is pay. Almost all of today's "premier" regionals have fought long and hard for their current contracts. Giving here, taking there. As far as the comment about taking the majors flying away, there are other threads dedicated to this subject in particular. The way your question is written leads one to believe that you are defending GoJets, and are trying to seek justification as to why not join their team. If, after reading all the threads on this site, (including how most GoJet pilots hide their I.D.'s on the crew vans) you still feel the need to join this company, Good luck in all your endeavors.
In the mean time, I am starting a new airline. It will fly 737s, and the CAs will be paid 30k (yeah it is cheap, but you will get that type for free). For the new guys, I will be offering right seat time for only 98 bucks per hour. Think of it, in one year you will have 900 hours of 737 time for only $88,200 and you will be SUPER hireable!

I don't believe for a second that you have gotten a call for a street captain job at that dump of an airline.
It's not even about the whole history of GJ anymore, it's about undercutting other regionals. The pay is already well below of what we deserve, the last thing we need is more clowns going to places like GJ just to get their TPIC time (which I believe will be history in a few years anyway).

Regionals are internships. Every one of them.

Rickt has a father who has been in this industry a very long time with UA, he has a good idea what he is talking about I would say. I know I have learned alot from my Parents who were both at pre- NWA during their strike and the old man was a strike coordinator. The fact is growing up around it and hearing stories you know better than to go to Gojet, and I know for a fact my Father knows who GoJet is and knows they are scum because we talked about it a few times. O and hes pretty disappointed with the fact they are flying for Delta now, does not think too highly of them, it is also a scope issue but thats besides the point. Just because were noobies doesnt mean were clueless.

Funny Gojet took in a lot of United furloughs knowing that they would be recalled. Are those guys scum too?? You can't have it both ways.
