I was not attempting to offer an opinion, merely stating what was reported, the effect that might have, and how BA might react. It applies equally to other airlines too of course.
I am fully aware of the requirements of pilots and you are right, age should not be a barrier under the EU. What BA and other airlines, and the CAA, think about that is another matter - as I indicated at the beginning of the thread.
However, you seem to be distancing pilots from cabin crew, which is not the point. ALL workers. Cabin crew, ground crew, handlers, fuellers, C&E, dispatchers and anyone from all sections of the airline industry, from all walks of life even, will have the same options of employment continuance as anyone else. How that will be resolved in our industry in particular remains to be seen.
Please continue the debate. It has a long way to go yet.
