DAL is hiring at historic levels and will soon increase that. The original stack of applicants were scored resume by resume. Stack 1 = super qualified, Stack 2 = pretty good, Stack 3. In less than one year we are going through stack 2. How will regionals function in two years? (Poorly, if at all.) What will be the quality, quantity and cultural fit of our applicants in 5 years?

Why would DAL let us become less efficient and increase the need for more pilots when they are aware of a quickly diminishing pilot pool? Not going to happen on this contract or the next.
