Has anyone heard anything lately on when hiring may resume? It seems like SkyWest is doing far better than any of the other regionals and curious if there's any talks of hiring starting back up? What are schedules looking like? Are pilots meeting/exceeding their minimums to allow for this? I hit 1500 hours a couple months ago and I'm just sitting in limbo (still instructing and building time/experience) waiting for someone to maybe start hiring again one day...

MSP is still way down from pre covid levels; however, they have seen steady increases in block hours since September. December will be the first month since covid that OO does more departures than 9e out of MSP for for DL.
