Heard a rumour that the contrail requirements have been lowered. Can anyone confirm this or have a link to the website?

Not THAT low!!!!! Unless a jacket requirement was put in as well.

If that is true to bad it will be just in time for lots of high time guys on the market.

This completely debunks the entire business case for Contrail if true. How can so-called "SAFETY" be conditional on the availability of experienced pilots? Did something other than the cyclical point in the economy change that would magically reduce the number of hours required to captain a King Air safely?
Hmm....didn't think so. The requirements were way too high in the first place, but the timing of this kind of (granted, overdue) change is highly suspect! BUNK!!
