Fair enough, you both make a good point. Obviously introducing a 1500 hour limit would make it harder to get into the airlines. In terms of how FTE/OAA/CTC would approach this problem I'm not entirely sure. But you can be sure that they would have a strategy as regardless of legislation they are not about to wave their business goodbye without a fight. Perhaps as you say it would be a start though.
