Hi!

Boeing forecasts a need for 448,000 new pilots to enter the industry over the next 20 years, and more than half a million new maintenance engineers.
When the upturn comes - and the industry is already reporting growth - the marketplace may contain about two years' supply of qualified pilots among those furloughed or trained but not yet hired, and rather less slack in the engineer market. Before that time arrives, however, the airlines are going to have to start working out where the new ones will come from,
...I don't think they will...I think they will wait, and hope it turns out for the best, and when the undersupply hits, the hiring departments will all be in panic mode...
because the ab-initio training industry, under-invested for years, will also need to grow massively.
