I spoke on the phone with Capt. Bhattacharjee (API) 2 days ago regarding his opinion on the deselection. He told me the Indian authority (sorry I don't have the correct acronym) is considering lowering the max age back down toward 62 and maybe even 60. This is based on the glut of pilots available wordwide. I'm 63 and that may have been my reason.
I only know of the letters going out for the A310. I'm still getting emails from my fellow applicants who were selected for the A310. But indeed I have no direct knowledge about the ATR.
