What shortage?
Hearing/reading from everywhere about pilot shortage. Current job market makes me wonder, what the hack they are talking about?
I am not German, nor the French, nor Spanish or Italian speaker able to apply for the legacies such as LHG, AF, IB, etc.. I am also not experienced on Airbus nor the Boeing.
Having about 8k hours including around 3k jet hours ranging from both - bizav and airline (acmi) operation.
And all of the sudden, me and many of my colleagues are simply falling thru the net of the commercial interest of operators. Late 30ties, early 40ties, old and experienced enough for the RHS and not experienced enough for the LHS.
Seeing youngsters coming freshly from the flight school right into the jetliners and keeping the experienced guys behind makes me wonder how much this industry deteriorated over last several years.
