Massive pilot shortage coming. Foreign pilots are already in short supply overseas They will not be flying our aircraft anytime soon.
New requirements for co-pilots will accelerate the shortage.
National flight academys will be contracted to train our replacements.
Even if a major or two go away, the seat shortage will create tremendous demand and survivors will thrive until competitors enter the market. Some airlines will grow rapidly to fill the void.
Long trem: I think it looks good for our industry.
Short term: More turmoil for families and pilots.
Or not.
