So now that Canada is replacing the CF-18 fleet of fighter aircraft with the F-35 JSF the number of fighters will be down to 65. I was wondering what will happen to the extra fighter pilots in the Canadian forces since we currently have more than 65 CF-18s? And will this lower the chances of new pilot recruits getting a fighter pilot slot in the future?
