Hmmm. Former instructor.
SWA is STILL have FCTI attrition problems? Didn’t TWU get a new contract last year that included a flow?
Next question, what is the interview success rate for pilots and instructors?

Why instruct if you can hold a medical? They’re working those guys’ asses off. Get paid more and work less flying and you can throw a rock and land a job these days.

There's a story floating around about an instructor whose time came to interview for a pilot position. The company denied it said they couldn't afford to lose him as an instructor. So he went and interviewed with AA, and starts class soon if not already. So they (SWA) lost both a current instructor and potential pilot all in one fell swoop. #winning
