At this point in the game, they don't need new pilots - just ships for all the pilots they have!!
But seriously, every Republic era Jedi had their own ship, and we've just barely given all of them their ships. Raid Han, one of the galaxy's most famous pilots? Only flying the seat of his pants for now. Commander Luke and R2 without an X-wing? Just makes me sad.
I'm kidding a little, but the truth is that the prequels drowned us in characters and ships, the original trilogy established most of the iconic ships, but there weren't all that many to be honest ( or were so generic they never got an official pilot of any sort ) and the sequels have been a desert. Rogue One alone did more on that account than both Force Awakens and Last Jedi combined.
So they're stuck with an era of characters that are waiting on their ships to be added, and two eras of characters that have lots of ships with no identified pilots, or almost no ships at all that aren't already added. I honestly think they're in a bit of a pickle.
I'd say give Farmboy Luke a T-16 Skyhopper, but those are technical speeders, and it still doesn't do anything to balance out the eras or the factions. It's a mess right now, I'm looking forward to seeing how they approach it.
