Why would it keep dropping? Honestly asking, from a mathematical standpoint. Sure, with increased retirements and hiring, the time it takes to reach that seniority will be much faster, so it would take a new hire much less time to reach, say, 12000 and widebody FO. But the only way really for those numbers to keep dropping would be adding more of those positions/airplanes or for some reason a particular bid status became less desirable for more senior pilots, thus dropping to junior ones. Again, lots of turnover in and of itself shouldn't really cause the number to drop, just cause the amount of time to reach that number to drop. What am I missing?
