Nice salute! Congrats on your retirement!
Delta is scheduled lose through retirement over 500 pilots in 2022.
That's hard to make up

Very true and they are slow coming into the industry as well.... Main Lines and Regionals hurting.
Congress needs to raise retirement age for pilots subject to physical evals. Maybe 67 or 68? Would help bridge the growing gap.
It would probably cause more harm than good. Most of the older senior pilots are on the widebody international stuff, ICAO has an age 65 limit.
The senior over age 65 pilots would have to be restricted to domestic flying only or displace other pilots out a more domestic fleet, narrow body and then still be placed on domestic flying only.
ICAO would have to raise the age to make it work. But it is just a temporary stopgap regardless, once they get to 67 same thing happens.

In other words, there’s no fix! Not any time soon. They are heir own enemies.
