Since most ALPA top out at 12 years the 35 year old replacing the 60 year old have the exact same pay rate. Sorry sonny.
Maybe so, but then that pilot is replaced by a senior FO who is maybe also past year 12. Then, that FO is replaced by a less senior FO who is only around year 9. Then, that FO is replaced by a fairly junior FO who is only at year 5. Then that FO is replaced by a really junior FO or senior SO at year 2 or 3. Then, that pilot is replaced by a new S/O, which leaves (finally) a nice new spot for a new hire at 25K or heaven forbid the recall of a FURLOUGHED pilot.
Nice try sonny. (middle finger picture here)
