it would be interesting if the likes of AA, UA, DL and other airlines that are generally opposed to 67 along with ALPA were able to lobby to exempt carriers engaged in flag operations outside of US and Canada*. Basically allowing 67 at the regionals while keeping 65 at the majors.
* it is my understanding Canada already does not have an age limit, which is why I made that distinction

If Europe can put low time pilots in the right seat, which we did for decades, then so can we. 1500 hour rule has nothing to do with safety, it was 100% political.

Uh no, it is the Federal Reserve's manipulation of the marketplace that caused this. As always, government is the problem.

Many people would be better off renting, especially if .gov didn't incentivize ownership. If nothing else owning restricts mobility, and thus access to better employment opportunities or just happier living conditions. You can't always just sell and move, depends on your current credit score, interest rates, and home valuation relative to when you bought. I have a good friend, single mom, who's been living that nightmare for years. Bought right before 2008, upside down for years, if she sold today she'd lose all the money she put in over the years. She really wants to get out of dodge...

Unironically, words don’t mean anything anymore.

Dr. Hossenfelder confuses the system and the surroundings as my thermodynamics professor said.
