Hello Norman!
Oh, I don't know Norman. You forgot to mention that both the 737 and A320 are desperately overdue for replacement, will be commercially unsustainable anyway in the peak oil environment of the future, the replacements for which will almost certainly require a new type rating. In the 100 seat class, I'd say the EMB is the thinking man's hedge against the future that'll have old farts like you and I permanently grounded.
Why not suggest they join BALPA. That's bound to help, right?
