If the Majors didnt add one new airplane. Collectively they would still need to add 2500-3000 pilots a year to cover retirement. I am probably under stating the number. This is just considering the big 4 airlines for the next couple of years. After that it gets better. Dont snub your nose at flying the small jets. I have witness several folks take a step backwards to only leap ahead after two years.
