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

I am not working in my country but in a "steady" company now (for what it's worth nowadays) and in the last 5 years I have been travelling allover to keep my job. As 60 is still the rule so far that's where I am planning to (financially wise).

I can't leave a tear for guys who have been working in a decent company or a major for the last 30 years and not having been able to save, plan to retire at 60 regardless of how many children, wives etc. they have. Sorry if your planning didn't work out the way you wanted, but 60 it was and has almost allways been.

Why would the rules need to be changed right now? Who are the greedy selfish people here, the senior cpts or the junior f/o's?

Aviation safety can go without 60+ers.
