Don't be so sure of yourself on this one. There is a guy that turned 60 in late Oct, still shows up as the #1 guy on the DC-10 CAP list and listed as NQN on his calendar, starting at his 60th b'day. Why does he still have a calendar if he's not trying to wait out the over 60 change by just taking a leave of absence?
A friend of mine who retired (at age 60) this year 2007 still has a calendar and is shown NQN. He said he has absolutely no intent on coming back, doesn't even miss it. He's enjoying flying too much, oops I mean fly fishing.
I think the NQN calendar just means that they are still on the master list.
