Pilot Shortage (2015 OSU Summit)
The regional airline industry still can't seem to fix the problem of attracting enough pilots to fill the low paying, entry-level new hire pilot positions.
Let's have another summit to discuss these issues!

This should help find solutions to fix the problem. Not!

Pilot Shortage (2015 OSU Summit)
I hope they don't go in that summit and try to convince a bunch of students there's a shortage of pilots; instead a shortage of pilots willing to work under crap contracts.

Pure speculation on my part, but I bet Ohio State is trying ascertain whether or not its viable to continue offering flight training and aviation related degrees. Whereas Embry Riddle is one suited in that its primary focus is educating aviation professionals, both seminars are self serving in that one needs to bolster enrollment while the other may abandon the insdustry all together in favor of redploying its efforts and capital towards its other colleges (medicine, law, business, agriculture).

How many other degree-granting schools have closed up their 2 or 4 year flight training programs over the last several years?
I know St. Cloud State in MN ended last year, and Daniel Webster College in NH was finished a few years ago. What others used to be out there that no longer have active flight operations?
