It's a really bad article:

* did not say who's paying for the training

* number of hours required for ATP is less than 1,500 for certain structured training programs

* there definitely is and will be a shortage of ATPs who are willing to be paid at regional rates of $18k-$25k under the new knee-jerk regulations

* other airlines are already offering school loan "forgiveness" for new hires

Last sentence, third to last paragraph: Prospective pilots would pay for their own training.
