I must have missed the clause, in the new-hire contract in 2000
that stated; "even though you...chose...to join the Big Airline at age 40, we guarantee you 35 years of service."
Conversely, I do remember it being in "Black and White" in the Collective Agreement; "Mandatory Retirement at age 60," in 2000.
I am comfortable that ACPA is using my dues, to fight - the good fight.
Cheers
