Default Delta hiring!

Just announced yesterday that Delta will begin classes Nov of this year. At least 300 pilots in 2014. Apply via airline apps. Good luck.

This is great news for about .03% of the pilot population
Maybe one day they'll hire more mainline pilots than underpaid, concessionary contract regional pilots... or not.

How has this thread not blown up yet?
Because there are so many anti-"Pilot Shortage" people who only post doom and gloom.

And, when Delta hires a pilot, they have to come from somewhere (and they have to have their ATP)....so there will be hiring at Compass and other places to replace those sucked into Delta. And, there are less guys who are willing to go to China (or the Middle East, Asia, etc.)...they were considering leaving their regional captain job to go to China, but instead they're off to DAL, so now China has to rachet up their pay and schedules, etc. So, more pressure on other US regional pilots to go to China, and less guys available for UAL, USAir, etc.

Did you know that one of the Chinese airlines just advertised hiring into a BUNCH of North American pilot bases???
