To imagine the equivalent for men, think of the final scene of Dumb and Dumber where Harry and Lloyd were offered the job traveling with and oiling up Hawaiian Tropic bikini models for a few months.
Do you think you'd have trouble getting men to fill a job like that even if it paid less than minimum wage? You'd have guys lined up around the block.
For men it is not entirely applicable since men sooner or later have to start earning dough. Cheerleaders however can expect within reasonable accuracy that they will either get a high value man for marriage or get "pregnant" accidentally.
Apart from that it is one of the endemic problems of capitalistic society where a corporation will squeeze the wage slaves out as much as possible - in this case women's instincts to be close to high level Men. In the case of airline pilots where many young pilots are on food stamps to survive, it is not so funny anymore. There corporations managed to take the love of flying of men and use it against them knowing full well that many men would still take the job for a chance to be flying a plane.
I do not see it as a positive - neither with pilots nor with cheerleaders. They could easily give the girls fairly decent wages. Maybe that would attract more wholesome girls then who would make better wives for the high level men instead of the likely sluts that go into the biz nowadays. But maybe that is exactly the kind of girl they want to attract.
