No, not pilots, schools kids. Plenty of school kids wanting to join. Big difference. A pilot would be ready for command in a couple of years. A kid fresh out of school will take 10 years to train, then get the required 4000 hour minimum required for a CX command, whilst logging seat time only, as required when sitting in a Cathay jet. And the historic 37% upgrading to captain turns your 800 into 296. High 5's all round in the board room may have been a touch premature. I care not. Sorry, just don't.
Don't even get me started on using the pus box narrow body as it should be as a first step for FO or Command upgrade, then moving onto a wide body. No we'll have a prison fleet, where you get sent with no option or choice or exit. Hang on, there is always an exit. Don't let the door hit you on the arse on the way out.
Not quite the workers paradise.
