This is a quote from where I got it, but it was all over the news.

"U.S. lawmakers who backed the higher retirement age wanted to speed up the change to prevent more pilots from retiring. An average of five per day reached the age-60 retirement age, according to the Air Transport Association airline trade group."

I think 3 out of 5 will stay if not more and if you don't think that is going to slow down the hiring rate then you are crazy.

The majors will be pulling less people up from the regionals so the regionals will be pulling less people up from the schools which means there are going to be a lot more instructors. Things like this all roll downhill. Hiring times could go right back up to 1500 and an ATP again over the next year.
