Secondary barriers but nothing on a retirement age increase. I would think an age increase would be an important issue to members and one that we would collectively be against.

This pilot shortage is overblown. When regionals are paying rj captains $300k and not finding pilots we might have a shortage. Until then it’s just lack of pay. Time to pay up!!!
This! If ALPA were to be caught this flat-footed on an issue like this - I’d have a host of other questions that would need answers. The fact we haven’t heard a peep makes me skeptical there’s anything to this.
