Pilot shortage solved

I doubt that cliff. Every time a Capt has a heart attack inflight(2 at UAL in the last year alone---one guy died), there's another "nail in the coffin" for over age 65 flying at the airlines. Unlikely.

Have you not learned GL? Cliff always speaks the truth. If he says it will happen, it will happen.

Well, for the first time, I did hear from a capt that there is a pursuit of no age limit for the First Officer.....

I predicted it, but ....c'mon

I don't see how that would affect me one way or the other- I just think it would suck for all the pilots trying to get on at majors
This generation keeps pulling the rope up

No age limit for FOs probably wouldn't affect hiring to much going forward. When you combine EGO with age, and today's schedules, only a handful would persevere.

A handful of broke pilots with a modicum of health and stamina, and less EGO.
