They will be 50% in the company by 2022 and probably WB captains by the age of 35. Assuming no change in the retirement age, no change in 2 pilot operations, and good health that’s 30 years flying in the left seat of a WB. Pretty damned impressive.
While impressive there are less than 100 of them. I would guess maybe 60 would be a realistic number.
