My guess is probably not as much as one would think based on age alone. Especially considering her 40 years of seasonal work. And she still looks great! My guess is the glut of jets and the steep downturn in the aviation economy for obvious reasons are driving companies to lower maintenance airframes and engines. Maybe she will go north to continue on her efforts. (Everts? Buffalo?)

May she have an enjoyable retirement somewhere in the sun knowing that her efforts are appreciated and her impact on human lives real.

Sad commentary that this is even happening in what is supposed to be the shining example of democracy in the world.

Actually and as a reminder, socialism is an economic model and not a political one. At least Icelanders, who do live in a democracy BTW, can count on universal healthcare and reasonable social assistance when times are hard. I am quite sure that several noted democracies, even "powerful"(?) countries cannot claim the same YET are, as alluded to by "che mex", having the exact same struggles in the airline industry. Personally, I and my family like the idea of having a net to land in when essential.

Most Icelanders are very conversant in English. I have been there and never had a problem. How many languages do you speak RC . . . .
