Guys dont be overdramatic. We have to wait and watch out what happens in the next couple of months. The Max is also on its way and airlines will need pilots again. Of course we will see some airlines go bancrupt but thats not new for us and normal. All big players will survive this and in the worst case they will get help from the goverment. Aviation is still booming and pilots are still needed. In the last few weeks we had a dramatic overreaction or hysteria. Lets wait and look how its finaly went out. The Max desaster could help us low hour pilots. I am also a little bit scared by this situation but we are on a peak of hysteria and it has a reason why airlines think that everything could be back to normal in a couple of months. According to some news the number of new infected people in China is dropping and some vaccines are in blind trials.
