I think it would be discrimination if they don't go back to the left seat.

I guess they could put all the line holders back to reserve. Oh that sucks.....I don't think the people pushing this really thought this through. For the company to minimize the money lost on this, all their lines will built to make their lives a living hell.

Senate passed HR 4343 by unanimous consent this evening at roughly 2145.

When Bush signs it, it's law.

Hayes, etc. will present it to White House tomorrow AM to try to get this signed
ASAP.

More info tomorrow.

Why don't I just give you my ATM pin number. I suppose you feel you're entitled to that too. Thanks a lot. Way to lack the class of your predecessors. You bunch of greedy pricks.

 

[AMANSWORLD]

Well overall this sucks. I have no intrest in flying until 65. Some guys do, just not me. Now comes the real problem. Be ready for a very complete physical.

 

[jbDC9]

Now we need to start on changing to age 70. Age 65 is pure age discrimination.

What, was that supposed to be funny? It wasn't.

Idiot.

Well, we can always hope that a bunch of them fall on the jetway or getting out of hotel vans and break a hip. Or maybe they'll just wander off and get lost in the terminal as dementia hits. I wonder what the traveling public will think when they are stumbling around the terminal looking dazed and confused and can't find their way to the gate???

Oh well, at least the Dutch have started the process to make it better... http://archives.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/europe/04/01/netherlands.euthanasia/ (okay, I'm kidding about the Holland thing...)

GEN X .... This is just the beginning. Wait until the boomers "fix" social security. The greediest generation is just beginning to dig in. In the name of "fairness" we will work longer and for less regardless of our chosen career.

To add insult to injury if you don't heartily agree with their position they will accuse you of being selfish.

So now who's in charge of wiping the ancient captain's chin drool?

Please tell me that the FAA considers rectal incontinence a disqualifying factor in geezer medicals.

Edited:

On behalf of 75% of FedEx pilots, I wished FoxHunter ill-will.

I still do, though I've decided it was in poor taste to post it on a public forum.

Good luck "bro".

 

[waveflyer]

OK-When will it actually take effect?

 

[BigMeat]

Well there it goes. Dont expect me to carry your carry ons up the stairs you ole bastards. You had yours and now you are going to take ours. Good luck and dont expect me to go above and beyond on your flights. If it doesnt involve safety or ontime you will get no "I already got it captain" bull********************. Have fun flyin until dyin. Dont forget your socks....

 

[Freight Dog]

Airline safety just took a nose-dive.

Be careful out there folks.

 

[anewunion]

Get out of Guam before it's too late...

You have older pilots in this country shaking in their boots..............LOL !

Sorry about the setback in your career. But look on the bright side, the harder job you formerly did for less time has no become an easier job for longer (if you make good on your threats).

So, in effect, things have gotten EASIER for you.

There, now don't you feel better ?

 

[FLYLOW22]

Hopefully you and all your scab brothers will be dead at 61.

It's good to see that love is in the air... :uzi: SCAB

 

[Caveman]

Ah yes, when you have no logical argument to make, by all means resort to personal attacks. It makes you look VERY credible.

You're kidding right? Please reread this thread and see who's doing the name calling. The anti APAAD folks are generally the ones making the personal attacks.
