That's why I've always said that ALPA and Teamsters, and the other major unions need to get together and come up with a comprehensive education plan for people looking to be airline pilots. A real honest lesson on what this industry is REALLY like. I true and honest look at what youre in for and I would presume alot wouldnt go through with the training. I'm not sayin we should discourage future airline pilots but we should at least educate them what theyre truely in for. This could potentially effect the supply of airline pilots in our favor. Maybe help out our cause.
