Sorry, but having to wait till 40 to start at your career company doesn't make the whole picture better... (ask me how I know)
Also, currently about 9100 pilots, about 400 retirements per year for the next 10 years, so to get to 50% without growth takes 11 years. If you can upgrade before you hit 60% there's a reason (work weekends, xmas, 4th/7.....).
What airline are you talking about with 400 retirements per year?
I remember SWA numbers in the 150-200 per year region
