How is that relevant to this thread? The idiot who started it all is
talking about CURRENT HIRING. Any other statistic is worthless. I read
the
entire link, and the only part of it relevant to this thread is the part
that describes CURRENT HIRING.

I wasn't responding to the original poster. I only read the forst sentance
of his drivel before I skimmed on through the thread.

As was very clearly stated in my origianl post to YOU (not the original
poster), I was responding to YOUR comment as follows:

"Peter Domino"
Your claim that the
airlines "seem to have a 'liking' for ex-military pilots" is utter B.S.
Most commercial pilots are NOT from the military.

Which is utter BS . . . Mostly.

As stated in my reply, you are probably right that most "commercial" pilots
are not military. But you specifically mentioned AIRLINE PILOTS.

It appears that most airline pilots do, in fact, have military backgrounds
according to some fairly authoritative (but not terribly current) data. . .
.. which resulted in New's calling BS on me, me calling BS on Newps, then me
posting relevant data supporting the figure and your inevitable and
maddening twisting of the data in a feeble attempt to backslide from an
unsupported stance.

It's right there in black and white, Pete.

If you're going to jump into an argument, make sure you have a clue about
what you're suppose to be arguing about.

Ditters.
