I was in briefing room a couple of years ago and a pilot was getting his 40yr of employment cake/pin from the Chief pilot and others in the room. At the time he was #1 A330 Cappy in ATL with 3 yrs to go!

In his speech though he did say that Delta was his 4th company, but he only interviewed once, 40yrs ago....

Some approximation after 2040 based on September being the snap shot of current ages instead of the end of the year but pretty close. Wild movement on the list for the next decade.

It’s a great chart if you ever wanted to explain “hiring wave” to people outside of the industry.

Even more amazing is few off the street non mil that will probably make up those hires

Had a recruiter at OBAP tell me it was nothing against me, but I'd probably never get to AA due to flow and military jet pilots.

Family member? They check a diversity box? How much flight experience can a 23 year old have?

I knew a few regional FO’s that had to wait until 23 to upgrade. Theoretically they could be walking in with 500+ 121 PIC.
