This industry is hosed. Rampant cabotage in 15 years tops..and I don't even think multiple high profile crashes on the part of foreign airlines domestically could overturn the trend, as long as grandma can be visited on $199 round trip. The writing IS on the wall already. The best senior pilots can do today is hedge their bets, take the early out and find some hobby flying to do. People trying to start a major career today? They are straight up hosed. A de facto part-time job at best from a long-term and retirement perspective.
