Well...that's what Aerosim (Comair/Delta Connection) want you to know....

The facts are not incorrect. They just leave the dirty parts about seniority, bankruptcies, furloughs, mergers, etc out.

Pilot shortage?

Is there a correlation to good paying pilot jobs?

Nah, that's a reach. Totally unrelated...

I think good ol' Aerosim conveniently left out a few of reasons why people aren't getting into the industry like before, and thus the mythical 'shortage.'

Oh, I think they are using global airline retirements. I have a tabulation on my home computer, and in the US the numbers are around 1400 to 2000/year for the next several years-not 4000/year.

I have been in the airline industry for almost 26 years. I have been hearing of a pilot shortage for at least that long. It has never materialized. I don't really care anymore but I am sick of hearing about it. Not happening, it should, but it won't.

Most of the people that use these pilot mills nowadays are foreigners anyway, they get there ratings and run back home. No one in there right mind should buy into this cr@p there trying to shovel on that website,but then again there is a sucker born every minute.

Of course they run home. They make more there. We are the lowest paying industrialized nation in the industry. (heck even China pays better) This is the bottom of the pool in America as far as pilots go. that's why so many have been heading elsewhere and so few have been starting up here.

I wonder if they have testimonials from the 300 furloughed Comair pilots?

"I went to Comair Aviation Academy in 2005 and life was great for three years!"

It's called "sales," boys and girls. If you were selling a product you would do the same.

you still selling how great PNCL is? oh wait no, that all stopped.
