Air National doesn't have a bond (as you say it is repaid) and some of the guys don't end up paying for the rating at all.
I don't think anyone gets picked, but I've heard of it happening. Either management forgets to get them to pay, or something else...? Goodwill, not sure.
Interesting, so maybe possibley they really do all pay up for the rating then?,
and correct so after you have all your money paid back to you, then it wasn't a bond after all.

Eagle doesn't have progression onto Westwind, Gulfstream IVSP or G200 Galaxy jets.
Correct, you go to big brother of Eagle with the Boeing jets.

I've done some talking with mates too, and found out a pilot got a J32 job offer, accepted it, only to have it later retracted a few weeks later prior to the course which still went ahead.
I think Eagle might have more of a backbone once its at that point.
