Because the airlines aren't going anywhere. They aren't going to pack up and leave tomorrow. I don't have to be a captain in less than 3 years. And all the time I get before then is more experience to either enjoy, learn from, or both. You ask why we can't seem to accept the 90 day program. I suggest you ask why there is something wrong with earning your wings with time and experience.
Evidently you didn't read what I wrote. I'm not mad. I would trade my three years for anything. I'm fairly confident I could get a job with Mesa or maybe Pinnacle, but I'm taking it slow so I get some experience as an instructor, not just total time.
