Yeah, sorry HT means TR, my mistake . But I'm speaking of shortage not today but in a few months or years. We will start to feel this new situation in next summer, you will see. It is not inmediate, for me there is a lot o circunstances.

First retirement of pilots reaching 65,
Second, new regulation in USA,
The market in Asia is going to grow up too much.

The crisis also has done that banks give you peanuts if you going to buy a piece of paper, 100.000 euros do you want?, the bank says ok, I need that sign your father, your mother, your uncle, your autum, your grandfather... Even your neighbour. As a result a lot of Fly schools bankrupt, at least here in Europe.

So if there is a lot of USA pilots coming back to their country becouse there will be not enough qualifed pilots for flying in USA airlines.it will be open a nice hole in Asia or whatever they are flying.

Also another positive factor is 2013 last year of crisis so...

I know that I can seem too much optimist but I see like that.
