Nothing brand new here but it's a good consolidation of many articles discussing various way to deal with the pilot shortage.

It’s funny they say that 13% of the pilots will retire in the next five years like it’s newsworthy. If you assume a 40 year career and even production rates, we are always retiring roughly 12.5% every 5 years.

If they want people to shell out the $$$,$$$ and years of time to become airline pilots, make it financially rewarding enough to do it. Pay them and they will come. It's been discussed in length in other threads how little we're making compared to the past. Giving in to bad options, like 67 or <1500 continues the trend.

Me too. 67 is probably not happening for a few years though. Unless maybe the airlines melt down this summer and blame it on lack of pilots. Summer meltdown + winter holiday meltdown will probably make it inevitable.
