I have not seen nor heard about any contracts (as of yet) that would require to fly with them for X amount of yrs. Best thing you could hope is to stay here in Indy as a CFI and fly with Republic. In my case i have to apply thru Vincennes University which is 144 miles away. Then attend training in Indy..which is way closer. They say the 2yr associates transfers into Purdue for two more yrs if you want a Bach. All i know is right now being new im confused on who trust with my post 9/11 bill money. I think im going to keep looking for more options out of state. If you want anymore info i can try to find out. Apologies for the long post and thank you guys ive learned lots from simply standing back and reading these posts.
Vincennes University is on IND airfield.

Was the rush to approve a new TA really about a flight school? When BB spoke of growth at the beginning of the year, I must have misread E175, instead of C172.

The way classes have been for the past 3 months or so may prove to be enough to grow in a few months. Our list has grown even with the same number of people leaving. It hasn’t grown like this in years. They might feel safe growing late in the year when flying slows and before next years busy season.

Is there anymore growth to be had? With SKYW trading out CRJs for 175s and moving east to take over XJET flying, there aren't any opportunities for "Big RJs". Unless BB starts buying e145s to fly for UA, where wold new flying come from?

AA scope has 50-65 seaters in the same category. My guess is the next round of rj’s will be a special configuration 175 for AA. United and Delta are scoped out.
