Mr. Ward,
I would suggest you have strong drink and chill out. Change is going to happen wether you like it or not. Your suggestion about Parc Avation et al, you are right, on the property by 57 or so but also on the property the chances of working past 60 are pretty good. Yes, I tried various options to work past 60 but the world recession of 08 and 09 kinda killed it.
Also, you or anyone else in Air Canada have no idea about my life and what I want to do with it. I don't tell you how to live your life please don't tell me how live mine. You can pass this on the rest of the crews you fly.
Phil
ps We won't have beers when I come back!
