Our FW FTO is crammed full of students and can't wait to add on more junior instructors and promote existing instructors to higher seniority, all on the back of a view that the industry is going to come back soon. Of course it's great for FTOs. In the RW training industry, the view for many years has been "the old Vietnam veterans are retiring soon" and I'm sure they'll be saying the same thing in 10 years' time.
Have your own crystal ball.
