Nobody could answer that question with any degree of accuracy. Big guess but here goes.

If EK have 1800 pilots at the end of 2007, pilot 1801 would probably need to see about 3200 for his/her command. That's 1400 pilots to hire, or about 4-5 years at 300 pa. Consistent deliveries until 2012 should see those numbers work out.
