Swell. If you're old enough to date Miss Daisy, probably best to leave the driving to Greyhound.

All aboard, come with us, on a Continental Trailways bus.

With this latest TA ALPA has become the master of taking and restricting its members ability earn $$$$$

STAY OUT OF POLITICS ALPA !!

Having lived through and effected by the last age increase this entire thread is both illuminating, hilarious and repulsive all at the same time… but that’s often the case on an APC thread.

Aside from forwarding lousy contracts ALPA backing the madatory retirement age is probably the dumbest move ever. Parked airplanes = lost jobs and revenue ( dues paying revenue). We all know age 60/65 rule has nothing to do with health and safety and everything to do with politics..ALPA strongly opposed it in 1958 so what changed other than people living much longer lives? Absolutely a stupid move.

For such a new APC account you seem to be knocking it out of the park with Pro Management talking points and ant pilot rhetoric.

He's a rabid "No" advocate on the TA.

ALPA is out of touch
 
Already contacted my reps to ignore the ALPA bull**** on age 65. ALPA currently doing all it can to destroy the pilot profession given that disgraceful TA. Now pilots will need to work until 70 to make up for their BS. How about a madatory retirement plan ALPA?

If ALPA negotiated a retirement plan I would be gone tomorrow. ALPA is the one in bed with management not me.
