Flight Deck Retirement Ages

[cap10lobo]

Ancient behavior?

The unions in SAS are in great agony about this right now. EU says you can stay and some countries have made this a law about discrimination against elder!?

The union want´s to kick them out, but that they will probably win in court. When the union kicks out the most senior guys, what happens then?

They have to fly shorthaul due to restrictions in the US we have been told, but then again nobody seems to know about france..

They get full pension and keep their salary But the company doesnt have to pay taxes and retirement funds whitch actually makes them cheaper than a 50 year old!

This is a tough one.. espessially when there is a pilot surplus.
