It really is and those arguing against what is a very reasonable and generous age to bow out of a safety-sensitive position are starting to look really pathetic.

Didn’t they look pathetic before? That age group is full of scum bag scabs, thrice divorced creeps who literally have to fly until they die just to pay the rent for their crappy apartment. An entire life of poor decision making, but ya I’m sure their decision making in the cockpit is totally different 🤦🏻*♂️

I’ve run out of popcorn on the union board watching the temper tantrums from the Ensure crowd.

Just one question. When does the Shrub turn 70? Somebody please tell me it is soon....

People who can't handle change, and Pilots who mismanage their $$$. The old Piedmont Airlines had a Captain retire at 60 (max back then) and take over $1M lump sum retirement. He invested it in buying race horses and wound up driving a taxi in GSO

One issue not cited on this thread is that without some type of mandatory retirement age the union could make the argument that when an over 65 pilot lost his medical he was not in fact retired but he was disabled and therefore he could qualify for disability under provisions of the contract.
