Add a more lucrative benefits package, voila, "shortage" gone.
Pilots will separate from the military to pursue commercial aviation.
Senior PIC's at the regional level will find it more financially attractive to give up some seniority to climb the career ladder.
Pilots who left the profession because of money or family obligations have incentive to return.
More students in flight schools because, at that point, it'd be worth it to many more people to enter the profession because of the financial rewards and fringe benefits.
Pretty simple!
