I first hear this in 2004 that "shortly" the US/RAF pilots ex Vietnam will retire soon....2016 now is it?? I think its rubish..10s of thousand of pilots have come of the factory line since..supply is more than demand, always will be..
I started flying in the mid 1990's and back then (the pre-internet days) it was difficult to verify and check statements about "massive retirement waves," but I'm completely flabbergasted that people keep on falling for the same swindle time after time in 2013!

supply is more than demand, always will be..
I guess that's the whole point of those rumours of "massive retirements" that keep on popping up: to keep the suckers buying into the pyramid scheme of flight training, P2F and P4T!
