So according to you, If you've made it, it's easy, and if you haven't it's almost impossible?
And again, you're making up numbers when you say,"An entire generation of hard working and patient pilots has been passed up with every 26 year old who gets hired at SWA." Your math never adds up and your assumptions show your bias.
Just to be clear, I don't yet work for a any airline. My airline experience comes from working predominantly with ANG/Reservists and family members who fly.
