Commercial pilot shortage
It has been discussed here before but it seems to be getting critical with the number of pilots reaching mandatory retirement at 65y/o.
Congress is reviewing and there was a recommendation to up the retirement age to 67 y/o to relieve some of the pressure until new pilots can be trained.
Petey is dead set against raising the retirement age.
“The answer is not to keep the Baby Boomer generation in the cockpit indefinitely. The answer is to have as many as a good pilots ready to take their place, to have a stronger pipeline.”
This idiot acts like he’s talking about the hiring of city bus drivers.

It's the low unemployment rate under Biden. Not vax mandates or anything like that

Well that changes everything. His pushback against a common sense solution was necessary and well thought out. I tend to agree.
We can’t continue to have veteran pilots stay on when there’s going to be plenty of inexperienced ones to hire. -

Airlines in deep shit. Incoming pilots are often terrible. My friend since high school is an FAA designee and says the new incoming suck ass for the most part except for military guys. Woke standards are now being applied to pilots...

ASU and the University of N. Dakota both have aviation schools at the ASU Mesa Polytechnic Campus.
ASU has an accelerated pilot training program where you graduate with 1000/hrs. Good time to get into flying if you have the necessary skill set.

Do you need more specific definitions, Horn Boy?
Merit, best qualified - not so much.
Hope this helps.

A friend of mine is a Captain for a certain airline HQ'd in Atlanta- He texted me yesterday about new pilot going through the training program threw a fit because his preferred "non-binary" pronouns weren't listed in the documentation. I don't how many of you are aware of this, but one of the top qualities of a pilot is keeping their cool in adverse situations. Really hoping he doesn't show the same lack of constraint when Air Traffic Control mis-genders him, which I guarantee they will.
