ABSOLUTELY true. Same BS that ALPA tried to pass over on us when they flip flopped to support the age change. I remember the article well saying that the "Blue Ribbon" panel had determined that most pilots would go out at 62 when their social security kicked in. I laughed at that one. Aaaannnndddd.... no one left. Well, DUH. And no one is going to leave early. The ONLY thing I could see is guys emptying their sick bank before they retire. THAT one makes sense.
