POS18 didn't attract airline pilots, it attracted 400 hour (total time) C172 instructors. Of the 120 Aussie pilots only 20 or so have asked to return (and most of them don't yet have visas). Since the guys were on zero pay they had to find other work and POS18 isn't good enough to attract them back. Ten a week are quitting CX as POS18 isn't good enough to retain them. Around the world many have left the industry and most of the large pilot-mills have shut. So, yes there will be a pilot shortage, especially for CX with POS18.
