"Data indicate that a large pool of qualified pilots exists relative to the projected demand, but whether such pilots are willing or available to work at wages being offered is unknown"
Many 300hr pilots will fly for free or take miserable wages just to get to the airlines due to SJS. Not many 1500hr pilots will fly for pennies. The 1500hr rule may be the best treatment for SJS. More work and experience requires more money. Airline management folks just don't get it.
