Nobody really knows other than on retirements. Especially after the big 76T shakeup in Denver. The recent FO vacancy was a nice change of pace but not really indicative of any big news in Denver.
The good thing is the TK is staying there, and there will be openings (my assumption) as IAHTK winds down. So that is an option. Lots of senior guys in Denver which means they are closer to retirement. Anybody's guess on growth or more consolidation in Denver.
My best guess right now would be 5 years. That assumes we get all the 787 a350 737 used Airbus on order, no retirement age change, current economic state continues, and guys who live in Denver are willing to commute for the better widebody pay.
