20.000 pilots a year for the next 20 years?? !!!
I wonder where you got such hogwash stats! Not from aviation world reality, that's for sure!
I'll quote it for you from the Boeing website :
Pilot and Technical Training Requirements
As the world commercial fleet expands to more than 39,500 airplanes over the next 20 years, the world's airlines will need to add 460,000 pilots and 650,000 maintenance technicians, both to fly and maintain the new airplanes and to replace current personnel who are due to retire during the period.
From the horses mouth, I got it wrong, it's not 20000 pilots it's 23000 - think before leap with your hogwash comments.
Maybe a little more research before you comment next time.
Safe flying
