I totally agree. But it could still be done with not much of a change in hiring. I’ve spoken to numerous reserve pilots who have flown less than 5 hours a month for the past several months. I talked to a captain a few weeks ago that had to do his landing currency in the sim. Saying we are overstaffed is an understatement.
