Default Be Patient....

Heads up to everyone out there...

Things are starting to pick up on the market... Housing... On demand.... flights in general. Hopefully this industry blows open in the near future and we're all back to work!

There is light at the end of the tunnel............

my 2 cents

I fly for a 135 on-demand company. August has been our best month this year; specifically the past week and a half. Next month is starting to look pretty good already. I, too, think it is starting to turn SLOWLY!

It's great to see some positivity. I have noticed a slow but steady increase in the amount of job postings. Best of luck to you all!

Things are picking up a bit in flight instructing. More walk-ins lately. If this keeps up I can stop selling my blood plasma to pay the bills.

I admire everyone's optimism here. Research has proven that optimists live longer than pessimists. So if things don't change, atleast you will outlive your "other" counterparts.
With that said, get youselves ready for some hiring come spring 2010. It might not be as much as before considering the furloughed guys on the streets, but it will be some nevertheless.
