exactly why there is no need to change the status quo due to some careers not working out ideally. No one is entitled to two more years, when they got where they are due to the current mandatory retirement age.

I also commit that if the rule is changed, I will not work past age 65 as that would upset the status quo and screw the junior guys. As you said, "No one is entiteled to two more years". So. will you make the same commitment? /s

That is basically what happened last time when we went from 60 to 65. Very little movement for 5 years and then it started back up again. The movement we had from December 2007 to December 2012 had more to do with the merger than anything else (closing MEM, ANC, etc.). Without that, we would have been really stagnant. The extra year(s) added to your career are all at where you sit right when it gets enacted. A tad more palatable for a 350A than it is for a 717B or an RJ A or B.

Ok. Congratulations, you have convinced me. Age 67 is a bad idea. I won't change it!! ;>

I figured out the solution to all this.
All pilots should support age 67.
In order to make it fair for what younger pilots will lose…
ALPA needs to engage the company on a compromise. Us “juniorzoners” that will stagnate and lose out on potential career earnings should be provided cash, a min-balance if you will, on what we are going to lose out on.
We can call it the 5th pillar. Engage your reps! Ask them where the 5th pillar is!
