Future GTA VI Pilot
Why do I sense that this article contradicts itself a lot?
Airlines should do ab-initio training.....but jetBlue charged a whopping $125k (making it unattractive)
Regional pilots should make more money....but you're still away from home and working holidays and weekends
Cut the 1500 hour requirement/it's quality not quantity of hours....but Capt. Sully says that's not safe and he couldn't do what he did without the quantity of hours they require at regionals
So what is it? What's the fix? Does it look good for the future? Most of the people are excited for this wave of jobs that are needed and many keep having scared thoughts that they might not have a pilot seat when it's all said an done? I know the it's not a pilot shortage, but a pay shortage argument but it seems like every month the "outlook" changes for people.
Keep in mind I'm at the bottom so maybe that's why I'm getting the "you're in a good spot" comment compared to the guys already in the middle of it....except I don't understand? If I plan on going to a regional in the next 10 months...won't we be screwed and the above guys be better off at getting a shot up than I? I guess this all depends on who you're with and what the future of your company holds...
