and recession is market based, not how many people are at the Lowes.

Odds of getting LAX based? Pretty senior there?

New hires can often get LAX, as some class drops have it, others don’t. I guess it is just on the needs at the time.
Seems as though the ones that get it don’t want it, so a base swap could make it happen faster.

I agree with this.
Pilot1216 just ensure you bid the A320 so you can base trade. Can't base trade if you're on different equipment.

Housing sales are down and inventory is up because mortgage rates are up. The housing market and prices were entirely unsustainable and overheated. This is what was supposed to happen.

Housing sales down, in this way, for this reason, does not mean we have some huge 2008 collapse. Consumers are still spending aggressively, airplanes are full. Until that changes this is a garden variety recession.

Summer of 2001 was one of the best times for pilot hiring. Right up to September.

That's entirely true. Recessions are normal, they normally happen as the economy pendulum swings from hotter to colder. It's actually quite rare to have a dramatic collapse, and while the US and world have several serious headwinds, the economy and consumer have held up pretty well so far.

Many on here said $100 barrel oil was gonna crush demand and "glad I'm not a legacy pilot right now" crap. Airplanes still full.

A big collapse is far from certain.
