I'm just not convinced it will ever reach crisis levels. It's a damn good job (for the right type of person) and airline funded training is an actionable cost effective measure if necessary, and can be implemented gradually as needed. I've got 1000 TPIC and phone is dead silent. Until my peers at the 3-6 year experience level in 121 start moving on in significant numbers I'm not losing any sleep over it and I'm guessing recruiting teams aren't either.
