i really enjoyed reading this thread. my first time posting on this website and thread, iv always read but never posted. anyways... what the experienced pilots are telling us wannabees is forget about pilot training and go find a 9-5 job. am i right?
so what happens when all the 10000hr captains retire? they cant fly forever. how many jobs will that open up? 1 long haul captain retires, a FO is promoted to his job, a domestic pilot gets the FO job, a turbo prop pilots gets promoted to the big airlines, a charter pilots gets a job with the regional airline and then somewhere a fresh CPL wannabee gets his first job! thats 5 jobs right there from only 1 captain retiring! i know there are thousands unemployed but thats not forever! those numbers will thin out and there will be jobs once again.
thats just my 2 cents, first post,
but i could be wrong...im just a wannabe
