What does raising the age to 67 do? 17,000 retirees in 12 years? Not sure how it helps. Plus with how sustained the numbers last at the legacies (more than 400 a year for the next 20 years? each?), I see no relief to the airlines by doing that.
Rest easy. I asked our POI and he said that it isn’t even a discussion at the FAA. Airline management is against it also. No real shortage at the majors. Why would they want to keep their highest priced employees and their additional medical expenses.

He may be permanently resting - you are replying to his post from 2012.

Interesting to revisit though.
