Once they know the answer they send it.

Not to hijack the thread, but how much do any of you really think 67 will matter. Other than a handful of pilots that can beat the odds on the class 1, do you think it affects an entire AE. Maybe I’m dumb or naive but I don’t buy it one bit. 67 will only help our most senior pilots collect disability checks for an extra 2 years. I know the angst from pilots that lived through the 65 ruling. I just don’t think it’s going to have the same results. Hope I’m right.

I bet Gumm is trying to micromanage BS and impress his boss in his new position by introducing amazing new efficiencies to staffing.

Since age 65 vs 67 will affect that I just figure they have one ready to go with the 67 numbers and one ready to go with the 65 numbers.

It's still in committee. The votes taking place are to add the Age 67 amendments. Then it goes through the full legislative process.

It’s stalled over training and DCA flights.

exactly. I believe hiring will stop or slow way down, while network cranks up the schedule even more. Meanwhile, the optimizer will be put into overdrive.
