Clearly, you have reading comprehension issues.
I’m actually 54. And I WANT there to be a mandatory retirement age. And not because someone is “in my seat” and I want to move up.
My belief is that ANY operator that holds out to the public (which for the simpletons means that the people in back have no say on who is in the cockpit) should be required to have a mandatory retirement age. That means Part 135 and 91K. The easiest thing to do would be to tie the age to the Part 121 limit. The obvious compromise is for the Fed to increase the age one more time to 67 and APPLY IT TO ALL COMMERCIAL OPERATORS flying under 121, 135, or 91K.
And my wife (a medically retired 121 pilot) has standing orders to shoot me if I’m still flying at 65.
