Gulfstream may be gone, but that didn't hurt/help the industry at all. The 1500 hr rule is a joke. The only thing that matters is PAY. Getting paid in sunsets doesn't mean anything.

If anything the zero to hero mills now have a supply of CFI's now that people need to build hours. So in that essence, the flightschools benefited because they now have people working for them who would have fled to an RJ job after getting their wet COMMs a couple years ago.

PURPOSE OF 1500HR RULE = make public feel good with no benefit to pilots.
