There might be a few additional jobs.... but I suspect they'll mostly be on regional jets!
Yeah, that would be just pointless for the guys/girls now paying their dues at the regionals. There needs to be mass hiring at the major level in the up swing for everyone to benefit. I'm sure they'll be some type of greater hiring at the major level. Question is how much?

Just hope for everyone's sake that the regionals don't keep taking more mainline flying and their jobs with them...

You guys with CFI’s are forgetting about what the government wants to do. The MCL (Multi Crew License) is coming soon. Future job openings will be coming it just won’t be a experienced pilot in that seat.

The MPL would see trainees moving into the right seat of high-performance jet transports with just 240 hr. of instruction. Of this, only between 60 and 120 hr. might actually be in the air and the student would have performed just 12 takeoffs and landings in the type he or she is to fly. The MPL is designed to bypass the training for the current commercial pilot certificate with instrument rating.

What will the pay be? $20 an hour or a summer job?

Shortcut or Fast Track?

Was actually very hopeful that the upswing in a couple years would bring higher salarys. It is ICAO, who knows if it'll happen here in the states???

This program makes the fast-track schools look slow. This program probably has the SJS crowd salivating...:rolleyes:
