Can't tell you how many guys I know that got screwed out of a job during the lost decade. Congrats to those getting hired today.
Unless civilians just aren't getting hired, and those hiring pie charts indicate that they are, many/most of them seem to be high time. Just a few posts ago somebody all-civilian said they got hired with 10,000+ hours. What I'm not seeing much of are the civvies getting hired with 4-5k hours. I'm sure they're out there, but they're certainly not posting here.
If and when I rule the world, all pilots will be required to report in to this thread when they're hired at a major or legacy. And superfluous posts without any real hiring stats like this one won't be allowed.
