Psyan, you are right as much as I enjoy a cup of tea I do like a little friendly discussion. Were would PPRUNE be without it?
"I agree but providing that in doing so you do not affect others rights."
I'm not sure that I understand this statement in the present context as how being able to or wish to work longer affect anyone's rights.
Once again you are right, we are all permitted our own opinions, it's just that some of us are unable to put them forward without causing offence. Then the fish bite!
I have no axe to grind on the subject, I'm an old fart now but am happy to be a part of a two crew operation. My first 8000 hours were single pilot and I was happy with my own company, the next 9000 hours and growing have also been great by having the company of a second pilot. At 65 I'll stop because I have to not because I want to, and while I will be sad it won't be the end of the world, I've the second half of my life to live. Dread to think what my wife will say having me home all day though!!
