Actually they don’t. Pilots have been terminated with cause from posts they made on the FB group, APC, and on their own personal social media accounts. If you don’t know what you’re talking about, I’d suggest treading lightly. FOM is pretty cut and dry.

Hard to say. Just like anyone else that has a flow, it depends on attrition. 20/month is the flow, but if 20/month also leave like they have been... Maybe inside of 5 years for the most junior folks. If no one but the flows leave...8 years.

I quite agree.
It also matters that some at the top are lifers and are not going anyplace.
Further, those at the bottom, say less than 1,000 hours and in the right seat, will likely not get hired by a major.
Yes, there are some junior that may jump to another regional as a FO. But at some point that is just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
But one fourth of all the pilots leaving each year takes one’s breath away. My guess is a majority of these are from the left seat.
It is also consistent with the gross hiring numbers by the majors. Numbers that, based on upcoming retirements, will be sustained annually through the rest of this decade.

the flow is great as it moves some very senior people that otherwise wouldn’t have left. Nice to see some movement from the very top.
