For the past 5 months they have been hiring and training pilots. They have a great group of pilots there right now that include some guys that aren't using it as time building for the airlines so hopefully that helps their attrition rate over the next few years. The fact that it is turbine time and productive flying due to the good weather year round helps keep prospective pilots interested. Just like flight schools, and airlines - skydive Arizona will have to make some changes here and there due to the pilot shortage.
