It would be interesting to factor in, over the next generation, projected increase in passenger travel demand. Couple that with fewer pilots and we might be in for a real wild ride!

Eventually, if the most dire pilot shortage forecasts are truly realized, won't companies and regulators be forced to create pilot farms? Won't they change the laws?

And finally, just so I'm getting all this right... Are we pilots accepting the pilot shortage myth now as truth? Or are we still rejecting it? I'm just so confused
