there are more pilots here than the last 2-3 years and the theory is that this is because people doing the degree courses with FeeHelp are now starting to complete their degrees
You will also find there are less guys/gals in the piston singles/light twins moving on to bigger & better things as many doors have closed with all the airlines (especially REX) now offering cadetships.
Now that REX is no longer recruiting a large number of crew from GA on an annual basis, there are far fewer opportunities for the guys up there to move onto. Unfortunately this is a fact of life now and I do not see it getting better any time in the foreseeable future.
