My point exactly. And some think that estimate is too low, there are others calling for greater demand. The stated “flow” from CFIs/military/“other” not near enough. Facts show demand will far outstrip what we are doing now.
I don’t know what the future will bring, but it will mean change. Big demographic trends change paradigms and business models. Better to plan accordingly. People who say “it’s been this way for X, it’ll always be this way” are whistling past the graveyard.
