In America business owners are also not supposed to be strangled by burdensome government and overregulation.

 

Lol okay. Back to blaming the government as if there aren’t thriving businesses in this country. Alrighty then, carry on.

 

You mean like Fred Abbot did at Continental?

 

it’s important to note that sonic flyer runs a flight school and has different motivations from 121 pilots

 

I don't think age 67 would put too much of a dent in his business, all things considered.

 

The irony is if they lowered the minimums back to 250 hours like sonic is looking for it would devastate their potential instructor pool.

 

Why do you keep perpetuating this lie that someone just made up? LIE which makes you two LIARS.

This has been explained multiple times, please try and keep up unless you want to continue being ignorant.

 

So if you don't run a flight school what is your job?

 

YIKES!……….

 

This is what happens in a profession that pays very well, where people often make great sacrifice to get into, and love their job (as opposed to vice presidents of big companies)..and an artificial, and somewhat arbitrary rule is imposed to kick them out.

US airline pilots tend to have an simple, self serving and ignorant world view of some politics and safety.

Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Costa Rica, New Zealand, Russian Federation, Senegal, and Ukraine have no upper age limit,
Fifty-five other countries have an upper age limit higher than 60 years, ranging from 62 to 72 years. Yet, we don’t hear about airplanes falling out of the sky due to older pilot incapacitation, mental or physical.


Some genuine honesty would be refreshing, even if crass, such as “I like my job or just want more money, and I don’t care about your dreams, needs, rights or desires.”

All these other peripheral false justifications are embarrassing to the profession.
