Re: Stop The Law Project To Let Pilot Work Until 65 Years Old

The way that demographics are going, especially in the UK, we must work longer as there are not enough young people to support us when we are in our dotage.

I wouldn't worry about jobs for the wannabes, in the long term, with the predicted growth in air traffic, there will be more than enough jobs around.

Personally I would be devastated if I was forced to retire at 60 and I wanted to go on. Please don't try to take that opportunity away from me.
