Even the reserve guys should be getting at least 60 hours of flying or so each month, right? Do we really have people sitting around 700 hrs total time right now? I can't imagine we've hired anyone with less than 1000 total time over the past few months.
I wonder how big an issue that's really going to be.
Flew with an FO the other day, fresh off IOE, who said he had about 800 hours. They are out there.
