I agree that the zero experience students are not at fault directly. They are, however, the tool being used to contol wages by management's manipulation of supply. Mangement's next ploy is the Multi-Crew Rating which will destroy any hope of better pay for pilots, but until the MCR is approved, flooding the market with zero experience students will help control their costs. Whenever you hear people talking of a "pilot shortage," understand that this refers to QUALIFIED applicants. There is (and never will be) no shortage of people willing to fly with little to no experience and this is what these students are bringing to the table.
