Great, yet another pilot puppy farm.

And your reference of 'old fashion', does that mean you should be given a priority over those who could didn't have to make $8/hour as CFIs? Huh.

I'm not quite sure that was written in English, but I'll have a few comments.

1) I don't know where instructors make $8/hr, but they should find a better place to teach.

2) I made more as an instructor than I did as a first year CRJ FO.

3). If you don't understand the value of giving 500 hours of instruction (or other commercial flying) and then getting hired at an airline, perhaps you lack the maturity that this profession demands.

Regional Airline Academy, another pilot factory, started at $8/hour when I was considering it in 2001.

In 2001 I was making $15/hr instructing, and I know guys that were making $20+ health and 401k.

I would think these days CFI's would have some leverage.
