Is the PIC requirement a thing of the past?
Seems like a lot of the Majors have dropped the PIC requirement. Delta dropped theirs, USAir, Spirit, Virgin.
The age old advice of "Just go to a regional, get your PIC, and get out" seems like it's become outdated. Looks like we can advice new people to the industry to go a a regional that has good pay and benefits, just build their time in the right seat, then get out.
