I think it is more like wake the eff up potential pilots! It's not going to happen though. This generation of pilots is so incensed by shiny jet syndrome that they'll give up seniority to get the shiniest new hotness on the block. If they can't see that far beyond their nose, and with all the morally corrupt company lackeys eschewing the BS claims of short movement to mainline times as if they were facts rather than anything but marketing ploys, how can we expect any change to happen? Nothing is changing. Flight schools are packed with these suckers and a new one is born every day.
