He trolls the "Major" board yet he's never worked for one.

The 121 age rule does not only apply to the "majors", but to the supplementals also. I am been fortunate in my career to have never been lucky enough to get hired and furloughed buy a major

So I'm a bit curious is the union position on age limits about safety, or about the numbers of stripes you can show off at the hotel bar on layovers?

Sounds to me like you are just angry that you'll have to wait your turn to sign for the aircraft...

CANADA does not have an age limit for pilots. Europe is next...about 5-7 yrs ago Europe formed an Age 70 committee to study changing their system.

Our age limit will dissapear, it is just a question of when...
