Age 60 informal poll

[pilotyip]

I read the report

121 and 135 pilots. You mean to tell me that I've posted links to the CAMI reports here at LEAST a dozen times and you haven't even bothered to read them yet? Wow, no wonder why you can claim that this isn't a safety issue; if you don't read the FAA reports that prove that this is a safety issue, the data doesn't exist, right?

Talk about a thread coming back from the dead. The age 65 thing is over and done with and again I got screwed. The report said there was no statistical significance in the variation between under 60 and over 60. It also said it could be because there was no 121 statical data to make a direct compare and that 135 operated under a different, read looser set of regulations. Enjoy your time a UAL, I tired to get hired there once upon a time.

What goes around comes around. Andy and his "get out of my seat crowd" are now being screwed by the changes on the industry. Couldn't happen to a more deserving group. It's too bad some of the others who are "normal" and fair in their views will have to be dragged down too. Thank ALPA for all of this.

It escapes me why so many people HATE the very person(or position) that (or to which) they aspire one day to be...


Perhaps, it would only be fitting that when their moment "arrives", if ever, they should resolve to hate themselves...with the same venom previously displayed toward others.

hhahahahahahaha

It's funny: The last laugh is on the "Get out of my seat Crowd."

 

[hmmm]

And those that were brought down with them that never expected to not pay their dues.

And the "I got mine" crowd wins again. Screw the rest of the industry as long as you get yours. Congratulations, one more way the "me" generation has left its mark on those that followed.

The "me" generation is the same as the "get out of my seat crowd."

If there was any amount of unity in the pilot group as there had been for many years before the "get out of my seat" crowd took over ALPA, the pilots could have withstood the economic pressures and maintained the historically high pay scales we all worked for and so deserve. Your job has now been destroyed forever by the divisions. Just look at ALPA, it's been divided. ALPA will be lucky to survive. As a result you and your friends are going to be working for school teacher wages for the rest of your lives. If you want to know who to blame, just look at yourselves. Congratulations!

BTW, have you noticed that the ALPA executives and even the secretaries earn far more than any captain. There's just one more of the many problems. Of course the answer will be more dues from the membership. Bend over!

No sir. The "me" generation is, was, and always will be those born between 1946-1964. Their actions have been egocentric and self serving across the board. The retirement age change is just the latest in a long string of examples.

Interesting how you claim your victory in the same breath as disparaging those who pay the price for your free lunch. Classy and typical of you ilk.
