That's impossible to tell. Many things could happen to change the future. All I know is that FedEx has NEVER furloughed a pilot. That's pretty amazing in this industry. They have a lot of positive things going for them in the future. Growth in China. More Airbusses coming (A-300 and A380). Reliability. People pay a premium for that.
Here are the retirement numbers,they are kind of old, but that's what I found, (based on age 60 only) for FedEx from another website, updated as of Nov 03:
2006 159
2007 168
2008 159
2009 136
2010 164
2011 158
2012 188
2013 183
2014 154
2015 176
2016 204
2017 205
2018 209
2019 206
2020 190
