The aviation economy will get better. The longer you wait, the longer it will take you to get the minimums for an airline. Not to mention that various airlines are hiring right now and others are calling back furloughs. This is good news for all of us. The more guys hired and called back brings us all a step closer to a job. The thing is, if you expect to get a job at 250TT then you may have to wait quite a while since it is quite low time. If you look at history, many pilots were getting hired with over 1000TT or more not that many years ago. Then, there was a shortage and minimums dropped. The minimum TT goes in cycles based on demand for pilots. Now the minimums are raising up a bit and I am sure in the future they will level off and then if necessary come back down. We will all get our shot eventually.
