[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1179056, member: 43436"] You need to be more realistic. Delta just recently accepted applications for only its second pilot class since 9/11. The response was so huge they cut off applications in just a few hours. These jobs aren't going to people with double the minimum -- these jobs are going to primarily ex-military with 10+ years experience flying for regionals. Given the glut of pilots competing for a limited number of mainline jobs, the situation's not going to improve in the next 10 years. The US airline industry is expected to remain stagement over the next ten years. American Airlines, which is merging with US Airways, and FedEx are actually both intending on shrinking their mainline fleet. FWIW, you're not talking to a dummy. I have a PPL. My friend graduated from Embry Riddle (#1 flight / aviation school in the country) with over $100,000 in debt and completely regrets it now. It was also his dream. [/QUOTE]
