Diminishing?
 
I dont know many people who retired at 60........

I believe the wave is going to continue for a while! Just looking at the recent employment drive from Flybe, Ryan etc The need for pilots and yes inexperienced pilots is still out there!

Of course, they still want to pay peanuts! :=

A friend of mine who works in the recruitment side of life told me that the recruiters have 100's CV's on their desk and some are dumb enough not to realise that the low hour pilot sent that CV to every other airline out there! Thus giving the recruiter a fake of how many pilots there actually are out there! The second they pick up the phone to ask a few for interview they have been snapped up by someone else.... brings a tear to my eye.:D

There are Shorts SD3-60 captains jobs
 
I heard there is a small caribbean outfit with two Shorts needing short term contract captains. The pay is not great but the weather is outstanding, the airplanes are in good shape and everyone is very friendly. You can find them on http://www.tiara-air.com/ if that is any use to anyone?:)
