You will be in shock. It’s not even close compared to other airlines. At least half the ride reports are pilots in the low 2,000 total time with zero credentials, 25ish age range. The trend I notice is they just hit 1,000 multi. It’s fairly apparent United is attempting a different approach to hiring pilots. Maybe SK is trying to prove something, but it shouldn’t just be concerning for safety, but your negotiations as well.
That sounds interesting, but not reality. 50% of new hires are not less than 25 years old. The median age of a new hire over the last year has it been about 35. And yes, I have the actual numbers.
