Looks like your avatar is picking up- are those things real?

Have hope people! I just picked up a CFI job without having to move anywhere. Can't say where due to my low hours and lack of a need for competition, but I did it through good old networking and putting time into my resume and the hunt itself. If I can snag a job at my TT then I'm sure some of the higher-houred people can as well. Good luck!

The cycle has begun to swing back it is just a matter of how long it will take to return to 06/07/early 08 levels of hiring again.

According to the Biz Jet market, they would agree with you. Just read an article in AIN stating that aircraft values have seemed to level off, as well as new entrants to the used market. They're also starting to see a slight increase in sales starting in the month of July. I do think this will be a slow recovery, more noticeable head way should be seen later this year.
But hey that's just my crystal ball.

careful what you wish for. You really want to see a flight attendant wearing size 28 dress topless?

Used to have an FA, went by nickname (unbeknownst to her) of Chocolate Thunder at CHQ. Nevermind. Don't work there anymore.
