Ion ; You see the potential for all this affecting your health & appear wise enough to do something. Do not let it get to the point where your health suffers.I was there on the 76 & GF could not handle the "Age over 60" stuff at the same time as the winding down of the fleet. It nearly affected my health but after lolling about on Venice beach, playing drums at the "Baked Potatoe"on Sunset Boulevard & getting a job offer to fly corporates out of Burbank, I realised that there was a much better life outside of GF. Six month & one year contracts are the joke of the century & encourage very low morale in those accepting them. Go where you are wanted. Don't stay where you are really , not. Safe flying .
