How do they expect future ATP to get 1500 hours? Cargo and CFI time? Sims? Even circling around in a Cessna 150 at $50/hour that's $75k and it's not even useful

- toomuchtodo 14y agoCongress upped the minimum flight time requirements, without thinking about the consequences.
- rdl 14y agoSeems like a great time to downsize the US Air Force (and other military/government organizations with employ pilots); every (manned, not UAV) pilot and aircraft they cut would also get rid of 50-200 support at various levels.
