I was referring more to "the great pilot shortage".  I think (my opinion) the only reason RW pilots are being recritued is that they are closer to the 1500 mark needed to fly Part 121.  Should they drop it down to say 750 hours it will likely be back to the helicopter time being counted with hot air balloon and glider time like it used to be.  Southwest, United, and a few regional used not count any helicopter time toward meeting hiring minimums.  


"Application instructions: place all helicopter time in the OTHER flight time category.  No helicopter time may be used to fulfill total flight time or PIC requirements".
