Spot On. We went from the majors hiring 200 - 400 a year just a few years ago to 4,000 being hired this year. The majors still have a lot of 'extra criteria' to choose from. That is today.
The lay of the land is radically changing in the next few years. They then will be hiring most any qualified RJ pilot that does not have a bad blemish on their record.
