Looks like training can only supply 35% of the demand. The gates should be wide open soon for those who dare to make a drastic move.
Here is a quote from another articale."Mr. Greenhill of FlightSafety Academy in Vero Beach, Florida said 95 percent of enrollees at his flight school were from overseas, almost a complete reversal from 10 years ago when 70 percent were American." This statement shows we have very few in the pipeline and stronger evidence that a shortage here in the US is around the corner.
