Change!
I think the guys getting Captain bids today are 'safe' for now... not that their pay rate would buy a yacht, but this hiring is due to retirements not growth, and that's not going to stop unless the FAA raises the age again.
Of course Delta could merge with someone else tomorrow and stop hiring the next day due to more synergy, you never know what they have up their sleeves.
