While I am an experienced player, I am not an expert on pilot training manipulation.
Since all moving pilots with 80+ experience to TRACOM does is advance the graduation date of the currently training group, rather than increase the experience level of that group, not many players see a real advantage in pulling those pilots out of the front lines.
This is likely due to the fact that Allied players rarely experience a shortfall in available replacement pilots and are loathe to put fresh flight school pilots into front line squadrons anyway.
Pilots fresh out of flight school are pretty much nothing but cannon fodder. The real, and useful 'pilot training' is done manually by the player on the map by assigning back line, and primarily permanently restricted, squadrons to the Training mission for various skills and moving those pilots to 'reserve' as they reach levels of experience and skill necessary for front line work.
I try to remember to review my training squadrons every 3 months and typically move pilots to reserve every 6 months. Replacing losses in front line squadrons should be able to be pulled from reserves, not replacements, if you are managing your training effectively.
