I'm much more concerned with the latter two than their ability to fly the easiest tprop series ever created, with 2 pilots non the less.
You trying to ruffle @Seggy 's feathers?

Looking forward to the end of lakes. Why would anyone with a shred of self respect go there?
How fast are upgrades now?? @wildfreightess see, someone out there might take me!

Except this time, their help is actually helping.And the federal government strikes again. "Hi, I'm from the FAA and I'm here to help you."
Helping who? A bunch of pilots lost their jobs. A bunch more got downgraded. All of them are having to work that much more just to cover the schedule. And it doesn't sound like there are any new hires on the horizon. So who is getting helped?Except this time, their help is actually helping.

Where did you hear a bunch of pilots lost their jobs? From the sound of it, it seems they jumped shipped to greener pastures.
I believe it said in the article that Lakes had to ground/furlough several pilots who didn't have 1500 hours.
My company has kept all of those guys employed. The market will sort out companies like Great Lakes when they can't staff their company.
This has nothing to do with the market. This is a case of the government interfering with the market. They had no problems staffing their company until the government imposed the new restrictions on them.
150K??? ...I think 100K is much more reasonable.Dear Great Lakes,
I have 5000TT and a 1000 King Air PIC. I heard about your problem with pilot staffing. I just wanted to let you all know that for 150K a year and an 8 day a month schedule I'd be willing to fly as an FO for Great Lakes.
