how do the airlines make you pay back the bond, do they take you to court, do they make you sell your house and force you on to the street. i am interested to find out since i might be leaving aviation altogether even though i work for a great company but i am unfortunatly bonded. its just after the last security debacle my limits have been reached and am looking to pastures new, and wont be able to pay them back as i have decided its better to be poor and free than go to work in an environment of overburden. nothing against the company just the job sucks.
