This isn't new.....it's not new for airlines....it's not new for businesses....it's not new in just about EVERY aspect of modern society.
United Airlines has been doing it since the mid 90’s. If you were a minority or female, you only needed 800 hours of total time to hired as a pilot. This was before congress made a law saying you had to at least have a ATP to get hired at a 121 carrier, which means at least 1500 hours. At the same time, if you were a white male civilian pilot, you needed 7000 hours to even get an interview and you had to be gaining that flight time at a rate of 1000 hours annually. If you were a military pilot, you needed 2000 hours. United‘s training program was train to proficiency no matter how long it took. Those people hired at that time are now captains……let that sink in along with the current pilot shortage where any warm body will do.

You're just as likely to end up part of the crash site from the ground.
Accept death, and live life instead of choosing fear.
Hasnt always been that way. My father was a captain with TWA in the 50's and 60's and they put them through really intensive training. If you didnt get a B- or above you washed out. I watched him age 10 years during transition to the jets.
