But what can be done about it? Go tell the guys working there now to quit and go stack shelves until 2022-2023 or thereabout, when they can realistically expect new employment as pilots. In the present situation, people are clinging onto any flying job for dear life. And, unfortunately, that's the case in many other professions as well. The other day I was reading an article about professionalism in general becoming massively depreciated because so many professionals only care about not getting fired now.

Maybe the one and only solution would be to artificially suppress the supply of pilots, like they did in the USA with the 1500-hour rule. But in Europe that would be very hard, if not impossible to achieve.
