Thanks jack@sses! BTW, if we did this to keep with international standards lets see some of you fat @sses pass the ICAO medical!

 

[Chest Rockwell]

And you guys wonder why you lost this argument.

There is no "ICAO" medical. ICAO is the organization that negotiates treaties between different countries. So that a medical issued in England is recognized by Germany....a medical issued in the USA is recognized by Russia....a medical issued in Cuba is recognized in Canada, and so on. All that is negotiated by the ICAO

Get it, now? Sheesh...now I know why the vote was 390-nada in the House.

Okay d-bag, to get nice and specific for you we will call it the JAA physical. Btw, that's the physical guys in the EU are working past 65 with, not anything the FAA does. And after taking one of these physicals, I can tell you there is no comparison to our 5 minute ear/eye prod and cut the check system.

God forbid when we look into working longer years, we also consider adopting tighter medical standards in the US. But no the APAAD guys said it would be unfair to go there. Have your cake and eat it you fat @sses! Enjoy 5 legs a day with the old farts and the five additional years of working they've forced you to take...

I promised myself to keep out of this, but I have to say one thing.

This is for, well you know who you are.

I have little doubt why there wasn't an effective campaign to combat this change. Your narcissistic behavior and gangsta like approach/reaction has reaped exactly what many of you have sown.

I now have 20 years to retire but I will punch out in only a couple. I'm happy for those that need/want to fly for a few more.

My message to you who are just fanatically crazy mad about this change. You had your chance, we don't always get what you want. Just remember, there isn't one late 50 something that wouldn't exchange even 10 years of your youth and be happy to even sit in the right seat again.
