When an airline shuts down the industry typically loses 10-15% of the pilots. They retire early or find work outside the airline industry. If the goal is to get pilots then the best route is to merge airlines. Nobody likes the seniority merger but most people who would have otherwise left the industry, stay in a merger.

If you know anything about OO’s history, they lost a CEO over that financial mistake, and his right hand man is now the current CEO (CC had a front row seat to the acquisition). They’ve decided to go a separate route to eliminate their competitors (and it’s working).

However many regionals shut down anyone who wants a job will get vacuumed up quickly. They’re gonna have to get 66yo’s to repo all the planes to Arizona
