A little over two years.
So he's saying that 1700 Delta pilots were aged 58 or over in 2005 ?
I don't think so.
I agree with your logic but you are stopping at 2012. Age 58 and below may have made the original cut but then many would have hit 65 in 2013 and 2014. So maybe most Pilots below roughly age 56 in 2005 could be still here today, and a bunch of them would then hit 65 in 2015.
Plus didn't some guys bail in 2004 also?
The affect of the "mass exodus" gets less and less with each passing year.
