it will take 4-5 years for airline pilots. 5-8years for a 200 h pilot.


Hmm not according to Loop's advertisers!

Seriously, as pilots leave they will eventually need to back-fill jobs. I understand that for every 10 leaving 1 is recruited but I'm not sure if that is fact or fiction.

I really don't think we will hit a double recession although I suspect interest rates will rise next year. If this happens, then less people will train and the pool of pilots will shrink.

Either way, it is a win, win situation but not for another 5 years and not if you are riddled with debt.

That's my analysis of the situation and for what it is worth, I am usually wrong!
