Pilots For Raising The Age

America is suffering a shortage of safe, experienced airline pilots, but the U.S. government can update regulations to solve that!

@LauraLoomer @SenateForeign These are all lies! You are getting paid to post this by a lobbyist who is taking money from the left wing union ALPA. You are being duped by the only group opposed to Captain Anderson. Nice job Laura Loomer…you have become the instrument of the far left!!

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

@LauraLoomer @SenateForeign You are an idiot! You call yourself an “investigative” reporter! GMAFB.
Captain Anderson a America First Naval Pilot hero. Pres Trump nominated him twice. You are not smarter than Trump! Anderson is Catholic with 7 kids!! And you call him pro abortion. Like I said…you the idiot

@RyanAFournier @JohnCornyn @MattMackowiak Ryan…Captain Anderson is an American Hero. An America First Patriot representing President Trump! Jeff is a decorated Navy Pilot and retired Delta Air Lines captain with over 30 yrs of flying experience.
You, Ryan Fournier, are an idiot. President Trump nominated Anderson TWICE.

China supports ICAO efforts to raise or eliminate the air transport pilot age limit. A pending international move AHEAD of U.S. modernization of the pilot age standard will put American air carriers and aircraft manufacturers at a major global disadvantage.

The rational goal of @RepLangworthy @BHigginsBflo @RepTimKennedy and the Colgan Air 3407 families, to enhance #aviation safety by increasing pilot experience in U.S. airline cockpits is IDENTICAL to that of groups calling to raise the FAR Part 121 pilot age standard.

@PilotsforRTA @ALPAPilots How scorched will the mass of younger ALPA members be should the federal suit lead to civil damages and another round of a$$e$$ments because of leadership missteps?!

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

As the @ALPAPilots national board meeting nears, it is surprising how few representatives and members have been responsibly informed by leadership about a federal lawsuit filed against the union for failing to represent its members and engaging in age discrimination practices.

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

August’s ICAO international action and September’s U.S. government report, both calling to raise the airline pilot retirement age, demonstrate need for #Congress to make that move in end-of-year legislation.

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

One justification @ALPAPilots has thoughtlessly thrown at its own members for fighting against their individual #RightToWork is, “it’s in the Strategic Plan”. Next month, it can rectify that at the national BOD.

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

In exactly the same legislative posture (and with much less policy basis) #Congress set a *voluntary* age 70 pilot age standard for other commercial operators in the 2022 end-of-year omnibus. Now is the time to likewise raise the Part 121 standard. https://t.co/iZ3HyaMcC3.

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

What America is needing to face is that it has an airline reliability problem based on pilot shortage AND a growing #aviation safety problem associated with rapidly declining cockpit experience. Raising or eliminating the artificial retirement age addresses both.

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

Enhanced Qualification Programs (EQP), the latest effort to reduce the #aviation 1500-hour rule, may possibly include *some* skill/safety benefits, but cuts even further into the protections Colgan Air families fought for. It CAN’T provide EXPERIENCED supply NOW. @TheBuffaloNews

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

Truth is that @alpa is CONTRIBUTING to the biggest ever threat to newer pilots’ career - Reduced Crew Operations - by choking down quality aviator availability to the industry. #AI looms! #LetExperiencedPilotsFly

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

Time for @TransportGOP and @TransportDems to proactively call for an #aviation industry data review relative to declining cockpit experience. Incident rates are climbing as proven pilots are being needlessly forced into early retirement.

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

In the last cycle of #aviation legislation, pilot union leaders arguably mislead #Congress about “safety & international implementation” concerns to raising the pilot age standard. WP106 @ICAO strongly indicates that those were falsehoods. The regulation can & should be fixed now

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

Working Paper 106, presented at ICAO last month, is predicated on the demonstrated fact that eliminating the transport pilot age limit in favor of proven medical evaluation protocols & recurrent & spot performance assessments is ALREADY known to be safe. #LetExperiencedPilotsFly

[Pilots For Raising The Age @PilotsforRTA]

We applaud the formation of a bipartisan #Congress caucus on aviation policy and look forward to the opportunity to revisit the Part 121 pilot retirement age issue based on growing cockpit experience concerns and @ICAO progress.

On the anniversary of 9/11, lawmakers seeking to crack down on loopholes that allow charter flights to skip typical airport security measures created a new bipartisan aviation caucus https://t.co/EOJWBzpSWL
