I made the regional rounds in 2012-13 and I only see only a weak trend in this area, the kind where the top picks among pilot applicants will turn down the previous wage structure offered by the regionals. The rest of the pilots who are all quite eligible as well, are still in oversupply and are being turned down by airlines. There is no serious in the US at this time in my view, although there is definitely a mild boost in recruitment to get the same talent for the same low money. It is not a base pay increase across the board as one might expect in a genuine shortage, rather it is a set of retractable bonuses and other small items of that sort. Classes are a bit thinner by a count or two on average yet most regionals are able to fill between 5-15 people per class every month same as usual.
