Of course ALPA rammed this through. Do you really think a congressman would vote for an age extension bill if ALPA was screaming that it was not safe for the majority to fly past 60? If ALPA was complaining that there were no studies done to see if it was safe would this of happened? If it was so safe, why can't two +60ers fly together on international routes? It was just rammed through due to APAAD/ ALPA without any thought whatsoever. And if you want to complain about age discrimination why didn't the Air Traffic Controllers get their "age discrimination" rule lifted?
