I go to WMU. They can't keep instructors right now. Everyone is off to regionals as soon as they meet the mins and their 6 month contract expires.

Experience and training is about quality not quantity... yes the times listed are very low, however this is a skill based business.... time doesn't make you qualified, skills do.

How much 'skill' does a 500 hour pilot have?

how much skill does a 2,500 hour erj pilot have who can't hand fly himself out of a wet paper bag have? I bet a 500 hour pilot fresh out of training has better "skills" hands down...the experience...maybe not...but, they are two completely different categories...you can't knock the "skills" of a completely competant human being until given the chance to prove themselves in the hot seat....

what is "low"? is $20/hour low?
is a 400 hour pilot worth more than $20/hour? I think not.
