That must be new, about 2 years ago I looked at Sim Instructor jobs at AA and PSA. I had lost my medical while at NetJets in 2017 and was retired USAirways/AA. I had experience on the A320 and the CRJ200 when on "flow down" at Mesa. Actually went to DFW to interview and fly the A320 Sim. But I found out my PBGC retirement would be frozen if I worked for AA or a wholly owned. PSA was advertising for Sim Instructors in CLT but they required previous 121 Sim Instructor time and I didn't have that so didn't bother to apply. I was surprised PSA had more stringent requirements to apply than AA did but then I realized PSA was probably more challenging since the washout rate was a lot higher than mainline. I'd be teaching guys who never flew turbine before.
