Same with Taiwan and Japan. My old flight school can't find enough flight instructors to keep up with the international programs.

Stupid question, but does this mean they are going to just completly stop hiring?? Even though they are short pilots still??:confused:

Parking 30 to 40 airframes at any airline pretty much alleviates any pilot shortage they may have.

So much for my interview on June 4th.

I was shooting for the ATR in San Juan too :(

Same here, I had one the 2nd. "All interviews cancelled indefinitely", kinda sucks. Who else is hiring right now?

Comair is still hiring. 12 per week for the rest of the year. Get your application in ASAP.

I'm not being rude I'm being 100% serious. You need to get your resume together and get it over to a place that is hiring TODAY. Figure 600+ at that rate.

its based on block hours but a general rule of thumb for most companies is 10 pilots (5fo's/5ca's) an airframe
