I know a Captain who is retiring early (before 60) to get the most out of his retirement and pension. Don't think there's enough pilots doing it for AA to start hiring anytime soon though.

Anyway, we'll teach you how to properly salute once you hit new hire school. (along with taking the donut ring out of your hat for that 50 mission Sky Nazi look.) :D 73 |

[quote=olympic;304812]Not at all, no worries. I have a few contacts over there and I recently got in touch and they were giving me the scoop on the company. From what I understand there is no more flow from AE and a lot of guys will be retiring??? Retirement seems like the smartest option for some of the guys, who would want to lose there pension just to stay on board for another 5 years?[/quote]
175 of 176 60 year olds @ CAL:confused: |

I would retire at 60 take my pension and never look back. A lot can happen in 5 years, and American is the only company with a pension.
