...now thats priceless. So new hires will probably have class dates that get pushed back...and back...and back. Is RAH parking planes because they can't train the current pilots as well as new hires? WOW...

The regionals are their own worst enemy. Why on earth would anybody attend a flight school nowadays? Why would somebody attend ERAU, pay $150,000 to go to work for $23,000/year if they're lucky. There is absolutely no return on your educational investment. Even $30,000/year is an insulting offer for any real profession.

you need to look at all the options, as a pilot in 5 years you will make 40-50k
as a lawyer, which costs a bit more, you will be making 40-50 for 5-10 years and you actually have to be GOOD at it to make more, not just cruise up the seniority list.
Also as a pilot you get to fly a plane, get 15 days a off a month, and fly a plane for a living.
As a lawyer you get to live in your office and never sleep.

I look at my buddys from college, and no one is making even close to what I am, I went to Penn State.
You guys dont realize the US economy sucks, and this country is so in debt that the US dollar is slowly crumbling, just wait till its no longer the worlds reserve currency. That mixed with baby boomers unable to retire, THERE ARE NO JOBS FOR SOMEONE IN THEIR 20s!!!
Being a pilot is great in that regard.
