Default Safety - The Cost/Risk Decision

I thought this was a good article that brings to light many important points of the safety -vs- cost dicussion.

Default ATP rule 2019 implementation deadline

Has anyone else heard anything about this? I saw this on another forum and read the article it linked to. Seems that the FAA is giving airlines until 2019 (10 years after the Colgan crash) to implement the new minimum experience requirements to fly 121. If what the article is saying is true it certainly has some interesting implications. Mods feel free to move this if it doesn't belong here. I just figured this HR will have a big effect on regional carriers so I thought I would post it here.

Yes - it was discussed in the article from the thread in this OP.
The FAA began work on revamping training rules in 1999. Regulators had proposed new rules just before the Colgan crash but effectively withdrew them for more work after the accident. Final rules aren't scheduled to be issued until next year, and airlines aren't expected to have to meet the new requirements until February 2019 - 20 years after the FAA started work on the rules and 10 years after the Colgan accident.

Well there it is... I guess now I'm just surprised that this thread hasn't been "lit up" with discussion already considering how much of a hot topic this seems to be.

"... Perhaps there was a warning light that a cargo door was open or some other safety indicator. Airlines can then take those examples and use them in training programs to show pilots why they should continue a takeoff. ..."

Wait, so this whole 1500hr/ ATP rule won't be implemented until 2019?

Try it again.
I just did and it took me right to the article.
Anybody else either getting the article or having trouble?
I can repost the entire article if required.
