The U.S. is one of only four countries in the world that requires airline pilots to retire at age 60. The other three are France, Pakistan and Columbia. So, why do you think that is? Pilots are measured based on hours in a cockpit, and it goes without saying that experience makes you better at your job. Well, unions are concerned about salaries and money. So, by forcing pilots to retire, it creates a false shortage and gives them more leeway to negotiate. Clark disagrees with this law completely. Yes, pilots should go through a full health screening and should be tested regularly after a certain age. But given a choice between a young, inexperienced pilot and a seasoned vet, Clark would go with the vet any day. So far, Southwest Airlines pilots are the only ones speaking out to raise the retirement age. What do you think? Tell us in our pilot poll.
