Two regionals have tried to get expats and both were unsuccessful. The pool of applicants has not dried up yet. All this talk about the pilot shortage is bringing lots of pilots out of the woodwork. I know several guys who gave up on flying as a career, and they decided to get current and apply to the airlines. I know lots of young guys in the training pipeline who are getting their training done in 6-12 months and getting their first flying jobs. They anticipate getting their 1500 and going to a regional within two years of finishing their ratings. The well is not quite dry.
