I'm not new to this industry. I spent the Lost Decade at the regionals. I already donated 5 years to you, but of course, predictably, that wasn't enough. Now you want another 2 years from me. That could mean a furlough, but at the very least, 2 more years of stagnation while you cash in at $500,000 per year. And don't even sell me the load of crap that I'll be able to take advantage of it just like you did. I don't want to work to 67. I don't even want to work past 60. And honestly, I doubt I'll be medically fit that long. My generation isn't holding up like we hoped we would.
The fact that you and your ilk want to keep moving the goalposts and stealing more from the younger pilots speaks volumes about your greed and lack of integrity. Don't try to gaslight us into believing anything different. I'm not greedy, I just want to keep my job and maybe have a chance of a retirement that will be much smaller than what you currently have.
No to retirement age increase.
