This is the airline managements wet dream.

Get in a group of kids who are now in debt to you for $100,000+ and then place them on your seniority list. Pro rate the debt to ten years and PRESTO! You have a ready made scab force to break the pilot union.

SWA retires 2400 in the next 15 years. 41% of the pilot group if everyone works until their 65th birthday. The number will be greater than that as people retire early

That's what we are saying too with this 7600 number. But we have all seen your SWA Captains fight for higher age limits, so there is no telling how many of your guys will leave early. They must just love LBB.
