Airlines Want the Experienced Pilots To Move On!

Are you thinking of becoming an airline pilot and going to flight school?

Look around, there is a lot of opportunity at the regional airlines right now. There are airline pilot schools that will have you in the cockpit of a regional jet in a short period of time for quite a lot of money.

There are many people starting to consider being an airline pilot again because there is a big shortage of pilots. The regional airlines I think are actually trying to drive some of their pilots away. They really want the 5 plus year pilots to get out so they can replace them with the new hire pilots who see great opportunity at the airlines.

Why would they want the experienced pilots to move on? They cost too much and when they can have someone do the same job for less, that is what makes the people at the top richer. So jump on the opportunity at the regional airlines and go to flight school to learn to fly. Don't plan on staying at a regional airline long because they will try to run you off.

The day you get on with a regional airline is the day you start looking for your next flying job.
