It didnt take a scientist to work out that the rate staff are leaving and the 300 aircraft on order is simply never going to work!!
Do you realise how foolish you now look?
No airline in history has ever been short of pilots, as you need sufficient quantity of this (sort of) expensive commodity to safely run an operation.
As every Ryanair aircraft takes off with the full complement of (at least) two pilots, then, by definition, they must be FULLY crewed?

P.S. And PLEASE don't bleat on about 'safety'. If the passengers can walk away at the end of the flight, then it is officially safe. Take my word for it - statistics don't lie.
