I'm betting we hire this year, probably by October.
ECAM has been pretty accurate with these kinds of forecasts. Hiring in 2018 is unlikely because even if we needed pilots in 2018 we wouldn't hire until it became a major problem, then and only then, we will spend 2019 catching up. Its how it always goes here.
