Many things stand out with age 67 proponents:

- Misunderstanding basic financial planning
- New found anger directed toward their fellow pilots and union
- Victimhood
- Collaboration with anti-labor entities and politicians
- Undermining their own union in order to meet their individual needs
- Inaccurate representation of basic facts + promoting fallacies while accusing others of doing the same...projection
- Unabashed entitlement & greed
- Working against the majority of their fellow pilots
- Poor planning and decision making - not having valid safety data, not having ICAO onboard

Given the insidiousness of cognitive decline, surprisingly, many age 67 proponents have stated we should undergo cognitive testing. Would this increase or decrease pilot numbers? And aren't you here to altruistically solve a "pilot shortage"? There's that faulty logic again and a great reminder for the rest of us that 65 needs to hold...may have been too generous in the first place.
