Even if they did, your claim has a lot of IFs in it. IF they don't lose their medical. IF they make it to American. IF they get a captain upgrade on a wide body. IF there isn't a global recession that prevents all of that. IF we aren't flying single pilot when we retire.
IFs don't pay the bills.
Yes, some of them do.
That's why I had the range there. Call it $50-90k, or whatever. It's still a lot of money.
And yes, there are a ton of IF's, not denying that.
