Can't speak for the states, but in Australia there's already a massive shortage of helicopter pilots. It's incredibly prohibitive to get commercially licensed.

Can't speak for the states, but in Australia there's already a massive shortage of helicopter pilots. It's incredibly prohibitive to get commercially licensed. Many do years of work for free to get the required hours up. A private license is fairly simple to get for anyone keen enough. Wondering if Uber is planning to allow privately licensed owner operators to do this as they do with cars now?
