What do you tell your students when you instruct there "Yes, give us lots of money so you can work toward being a regional FO. I was a regional FO once, before I was furloughed. Oh, you did not know about the airline industry's downsizing at an alarming rate? Oh yeah, right now ALPA is showing thousands of furloughed pilots on the street, with only a few airlines recalling. Comair? Oh yes, our students used to all want to work there. Too bad they furloughed 300, with no recall in sight, and even if they did, you'd be an FO for 10-12 years. Other Delta regionals, oh yes, they all furloughed too. But, hey, give me that check and let's fly!"
WOW, I can't imagine having to explain all that!
