Airlines got bailouts during the pandemic and they said, “Pilots? We don’t need no stinkin’ pilots!” And as we all know one can train to be an airline pilot in a 13-week, 3-hour a week Community College course.
It is true, one can even get a private pilot’s license in even less than 13 weeks. That does not qualify you to fly a 787 or Airbus 320.

I don’t know when I’ll be back again… How did they know to predict airline service way back then?

That song is a reminder of how much we owe those service men & women who answered the call of duty, wherever, whenever.
