Will airline pilot shortage help Rotorheads?

Hello Rotorheads!

I have seen in the last weeks some big national airline companies looking for a big number of pilot.

Some of this companies had lowered their minimum requirements to almost "out of school" pilots.
And some other, at least one in the USA, had created an rotor to fixed wing transition program.

In the rotorhead world, it's the opposite. Big companies still making pilots redundant and the better future is still in the shadow...

Do you think that this urge for airline pilots will help us?

In my opinion, it may help us a bit. I know a lot of rotorheads that also have a CPL(A), some from the air force and others with a money enough to have 2 licenses, and some of them are willing to change the rotorhead world for the fixed wing world.

This may help to "clean" a bit the queue.

What you thing?
