AWAC picked up a bunch of guys from FlyI over the last couple weeks. We were hiring a lot of low timers thru the summer but more and more new hires are coming from being furloughed.
I sincerely doubt that almost ANY mainline furloughed pilot would ever even consider a regional position unless it was a J4J type arrangement that put them in the left seat from the get go.
