Au contraire mon frere. I know exactly how easy, or not easy it is and was to get a jetliner pilot job with one of the majors. I have two friends who are retired from the business, one from Northwest (L-1011's), and one from AA (737's and 757's - I think. And the former was a Huey pilot in Vietnam. I know its a tough job to land these days, buy that doesn't mean that a whole bunch of Navy and Air Force pilots don't dream about it and aren't going to take a run at it.
