I don't think it's 50/50 military anymore, but that's just a guess on my part. I think it's more regional pilots, but that's just from my non-official observation of who the new hires are that I'm flying with. Lastly, be humble, listen to advice from folks who have been around for awhile but don't be afraid to question things that you don't understand or don't make sense, and be thankful that you're coming on at a GREAT time!
