Always have been opposed to ANY support to changing the Age 60 rule. Disappointed eternally in FDX ALPA for cutting our legs out underneath us by supporting the change. Old news; nothing we can do about history. BUT, the Age 60 guys going to Flex positions instead of plumbing does two negative things to all of us under 60. First, it keeps them in the game for eventually going back to a window seat without plumbing as the contract and law dictate they should AND it reduces the number of line pilots the company would have to utilize to fill these flex spots. I know, since the flex deal got gutted nobody wants to do it anymore so let'em do a job nobody else wants to do. But, what if they couldn't get the necessary number of under 60 guys to flex? They'd probably have to improve the benefits that made being a flex so attractive for so long which would in turn allow line guys to migrate to these open flex jobs. That in turn would reduce the number of "line" pilots which would ultimately require the company to either increase pilot numbers or enhance pay rewards for pilots to fly more then BLG. Big picture, why doesn't OUR Union take a stand on significant steps taken by the company which ultimately negatively impacts the careers and quality of life of the pilots they are SUPPOSED to represent? Curious to see if DW and his gang respond or ignore this latest move by the company to enhance the FDA LOAs without negotiating with the Union. If they don't take a stand, then really, what do we need a NATIONAL union for?
