Sorry, never intended to start an Er bashing session. The comment about bonds wasn't aimed at you and your dash 8 bond, but at anyone who says they would undertake an embraer (or anything else) course but not want to be bonded - the only reason for that is if you intend to leave in less than three years. I don't know how much the embraer bond will be, but based on the cost of sim slots, hotels, air fares, and of course the salaries of the trainers and the trainees I think the dash bond is probably a reasonable reflection of the cost to the company, so probably the embraer bond will be similarily fair (or at least as fair as any bond can be)
