Yes. Those previously unqualified pilots used the flying taken away by management to gain experience. After gaining that experience, some with clean backgrounds got hired after going through the interview process. During this process, they competed with military and other civilian pilots. It would be a perfect process were it not for the fact that some of these pilots originally hired on to a job to which they were profoundly unqualified. And that in the process of gaining their experience, worked for food stamp wages and damaged the profession of the airline pilot.
