Remember. They're going to need 1500TT and an ATP written. Graduates of an aviation college won't have that. Now graduates who have been CFI's for at least 2years at a busy Riddle school, then maybe!

AE had only 17 of the furloughes return on Nov 6 and in class an additional 5 were hired off the street. And a class was suppose to start this past week and there wasn't one. They had ZERO for class.

We can only hope that the regionals have trouble filling classes as we move forward...it's what's necessary before you see anything positive in the sector.

The percentage listed above is increased though if you have an aviation degree from purdue and were a member of a collegiate precision flying team. Also, if you look like the guy in the picture a few posts above, you automatically become a 190 captain. His mom is very proud of him.

Well played. I actually laughed out loud reading that.
