Bringing this thread back to life:

Boeing has so many undelivered MAX’s they are being forced to park them in their employee parking lots.



At the same time, airlines are pushing back the date they are anticipating recertification:



Between the aircraft that were already delivered to US airlines and were parked and the many additional aircraft that WOULD HAVE been delivered by now, we have probably 150 - 200 JUST SITTING THERE that, were they flying would employ another 2000-3000 pilots. Ok, some of those are replacements for 717s and MDs that will be retiring, but even so.

This is going to cause a huge impact on major hiring and training once the aircraft is recertifications. And coming on top of the anticipated age related retirements, I would expect rather massive movement at (and to) the majors when the MAX eventually does get airborne again.
