Merchant,
I also had one of you jumpseating a couple of weeks ago and he was telling us all about how your new-hire classes are now mostly made up of the over 60 guys coming back to work. You do realize there is an impending lawsuit from the “over 60 guys” trying to get back their seniority. What a sad joke.
AA767AV8TOR
Bad info...We had one class of around 15 and there were a total of 21 who were interviewed and hired BUT a few were having problems getting a new medical. (If you have a waiver for any medical condition it's much easier to get renewed than to try to jump through the hoops with the FAA to get it back.) We did hire a few guys who took the lump sums elsewhere (Delta comes to mind!) and came over but they were all in their early 50's!
And by the way, AA767, One of your Kernal buddies over here who had a major hand in 65 is already on a push to go PaSt 65. Heard it straight from the horses mouth, SO maybe it all started with the Armed Services, the kindler gentler military should have never got away from "Blanket Parties" or "Code Reds" or whatever they wanna call them!!!.
I personally plan on retiring at 60 (or earlier) but I only have myself to blame for that if it doesn't happen!
