From what I hear (jumpeating and such), many Pilots won't be sticking around Mainline until 65 - they've had it...don't think it will slow down Regional attrition too much.
Thanks for the information. I have one more question. Does the hiring outlook for the next few years look positive, and if so would you get into the industry if you were in my shoes?

Thanks
