That's strange . . . and I always thought that LAN was better than TACA. In any case, it will be interesting to see the "blocks" taken out. Just a matter of time IMHO. I read a few months ago that alone the airlines of India and China will require on average 4500 new pilots per year-- which is roughly the equivalent of the entire pilot workforce at Lufthansa. Even a small leak from Latin American carriers should have a significant effect. Stay or go, the future looks bright.
