There is no mention of a retirement age any where in there, except for 59 and older in the multiplier tables.
Take a look. The R&I committee obviously knows more than I do, and they may have an understanding with the company, but there isn't any mention (that I can find) of the retirement age in the new contract.
We are screwed, and thanks to the old guys for bringing this on.
I would love for somebody to prove me wrong. Really. Please site me a reference in the contract (or anywhere else) that says we can retire at 60 even if the rule changes.

Yikes -- where else did you repeat this? Have I gotta chase you around now? (Now, if you look like your Avatar, that wouldn't be so bad, but . . .)
A repeat from my post in the other FedEx thread:
Have you looked at the Retirement Plans in the Pilot Benefit Book? (I don't have mine handy.)
The letter today from the MEC Chairman supports the view that Age 60 is recognized in our negotiated retirement benefits, and that any change to that age would have to be negotiated.
