Good regional vs bad regional means as much as your opinion, nothing. Experienced pilots aren’t coming here, if they were, we wouldn’t have cut the mins in half the last 2 years. So inexperience comes and failures increase. Not rocket science.
You're math is a little off, child. Spirit cut preferred mins from
4,000 to 3,000 which is 25 % cut (which is higher than AA, DA, and UA requirements). I know a few guys from my previous employeer who went to Spirit, all were experiences. What's your definition of inexperienced? Why is it EVERY other airline hires low time pilots and yet has a zero (less than 1%) failure rate? Ehh child wake up! Take a look at your POOP training department! I've mentioned this before.. You guys are hiring ground school instructors with 2 years of CFI experience and an aviation degree!! Perhaps a better structured training program with some "experiences" instructors would do the trick!
You're right my opinion doesn't matter!
