They are "willingly and selfishly sacrificing the leverage" to get them up to your(newish pilots') level of career expectations after 15 years of having their a$$ handed to them.
Did you financially support previous pilot generations that experienced hard times? Write them a check, perhaps?
if younger pilots support age 67, and then fall on a rough patch in the industry in future years, will you subsidize them?
no?
then why do you expect younger pilots to do the same for you? You are not and never were entitled to a perfect career. None of us are.
I appreciate the work the alpa PAC has put in to kill age 67, and I intend to raise my contribution. This might be their biggest win ever.
they’re going to need all the resources we can provide to fight the provision inserted into the bill mandating flight deck voice and VIDEO recording within seven years.
That’s what we need to focus on now that age 67 is done.
