Skywest have 600 CJOs to get through before an off the street hire gets a class.
I also just looked on the Envoy website. No pilot jobs listed in careers section.
Yes, I don't doubt what you've listed. There are lots of loose ends to be tied up from this mess. My question is more about what happens to regional supply after the dust settles from all the interim processes you've described. It'll take a crystal ball hence the use of "speculation" in my question.
I looked at the FAA data for student pilot certificates issued as a loose measure of how many people might be contemplating entering the profession. Unfortunately, data for 2019 is the latest they list.
