    Pilot hiring

    I’m calling it. The pilot “shortage” is effectively done. Within 18 months I think all the crazy money at the regionals will be snapped back to contractual rates and hiring will be back to normal. Better have that degree and a bunch of PIC turbine if you want a job at mainline. The hiring is...

    Which scooter?
