ALPA National changes policy, now supports Age 65 retirement

Hope you folks that were apathetic to this change don't mind your career being postponed another 5 years; you'll never makeup the lost income.

Please be sure to tell those who benefitted their whole careers from advancement due to Age 60 but recently decided such rule was unfair "your welcome"...because their windfall is at your expense.

What has SAPA done to advance your career, advance your pay and benefits, protect your jobs, and promote safety in the industry?

Nothing!!!!!!!!!!!! You and your pilot group have benefited in these areas more from the efforts of ALPA and it's existence, even though it's not on your property!

CHECK OFF THAT BOX!

The change was coming, thanks to the FAA, and Congress! In addition, some of the companies are probably favoring it. If there is a pilot shortage, this will help with supply as demand grows over the next few years. No matter what side of the issue you are on, the government is making the change.

Only a fool would think that the United States was going to be the only country not adopting this.

Only a fool would have expected ALPA to support the majority of their membership.

Actually, ALPA did support the majority. There was a new vote and 80% supported the change with restrictions.

80% of the executive council... hardly relfective of the entire membership.
