Likely to happen?

Age-70 will take care of that!

I dunno about that. Did you see news today about the CAL pilot that died inflight of natural causes? That coupled with all that is going on in the publics eyes with regard to crashes at the regionals, I wouldn't expect the age rule to change again.

Yes Morgan, I saw the news today...thank you.

Firstly, events like this are very few and far between, and in several instances have involved pilots some 20 years younger that that of the pilot today.

Secondly, in the cases of crashes and deaths that have occurred at the hands of Regional Pilots, as you pointed out, of the last few years the combined ages of BOTH pilots have barely been 60!

So, what's your point!?

Lets see, because two "thirty something" RJ pilots in Buffalo had both their heads up the butt holes, lets not entertain an increase in the retirement age...

Yeah...that will work...good thinking there Morgan!

Geez!!!!
