One of the probs AF wise is Flight screening in Pueblo. They are washing out about 25% on candidates--when they are flying an airplane that costs $50 an hour to operate. Since this is the initial flying experience for many--I think that program needs to open up a bit. I'm not saying lower standards, but maybe provide more opportunity than the 88/89 ride and out. That is well and good when we have plenty of pilots, but maybe not when we are entering this type of shortage.
