That got everybody's attention, didn't it?
But before everyone under 55 has an aneurysm, here's what I'm referring to:
I have heard that there are conversations being held about granting relief to the restriction that at least one pilot on an international flight be under age 60. That is, airlines would be able to schedule a captain and a first officer who are both 60 or older on an international flight, which they cannot do now.
Has anybody else heard or read anything recently on this subject?
This will likely change in a year or two.Originally Posted by teddyballgame

I would also expect to see age 67 first officers within the next 5 years.
