All right then, fair play to you guys, I accept your assertion that there was a few weeks' worth of pilot shortage in Oz in 2007. I may not have been paying attention because I was too busy trying to catch up on sleep with my rather punishing long haul roster. Living the dream, aye Redsnail
Anyway, that makes two decades between pilot shortages that maybe lasted for a few months each before the normal situation of massive over supply resumed. Sounds great to me, go hit up the bank manager for some massive loans and fill your boots because obviously the pilot jobs are all but guaranteed. Don't worry about grouchy old misery guts' like me
