Not a knock to anyone who trained that way, because I've flown with plenty of great pilots that came up through that route. Cadets coming out of 141 Uni's are probably just as ready for training as any RTP guys, and I genuinely don't think there's enough cadets to prevent any off the street guys from getting interviews when things eventually begin to come around.
