I just flew with a FO who was an instructor ar Riddle. His student (who was very well qualified..ROTC,some NASA camp deal, FAA safety stuff, holds record for highest teen glider..etc,etc.) was just hired at SW with 950tt and 300 multi.
(sound of me eating my hat)
I guess it really is happening. Sad. I never thought it would happen. Should have asked her to come back after 50 more hours in my opinion.
