How does everyone feel about the fact that a pilot over 40 has to pay almost twice as much as a pilot under 40 for a Class I medical?
I have had the pleasure (sic) of paying TC $55.00 every 6 months for the past couple of years with no difference in service. I pay on average $100.00 per medical + the $55.00 every 6 months which equals $310.00 per year while my under 40 peers pay about $100.00 for the medical + $70.00 equaling $170.00 per year. What gives?
How can we convince TC to correct this inequity? Perhaps a mass refusal to pay. You may be thinking that this is not the way to go because TC will just debit your tax account. Quite true if it were just one or two people. However, I think if it were all of the many thousands of over 40 Class I medical holders then I think they might take notice.
What do you think?
