Im sure DAL guys looking to make money are happy about this... the rest are scratching their heads maybe?

Plus I wonder at what point training gets on the back side of the curve and has to pull line instructors to fly, further increasing any potential training bottleneck. It might be crisis mode until autumn at least.

Need opinions… Retiring military. Want nothing more than to be a pilot with a major. Done flying at the end of Feb. If a major doesn't call, need to find a job to stay current…
Option 1: Regional (focus would be on flying a jet and quality of life).
Option 2: Contract pilot (overseas every few months to fly turboprops).
What would you do?
TT 2000 (all turbine / 750 fighter time)
PIC 1300
MEL 1800
