Glad to see the argument still rolls on. I was forced to retire from BA at age 55 and apart from 6 months with a cargo outfit have been unable to find a flying job. So all of you who think that being out of work is easy then please think again! While I can sympathise with younger guys who want a command in quick time I suggest they look at getting the seniority system changed to a merit system and let us oldies enjoy a decent standard of living and improve their pensions for a happy retirement.
