NetJets has a mandatory age of 70. However, I don’t think it is part of a regulation or government mandate. I didn’t see it in the table of contents in the FAA reauthorization bill of 2018. I think it’s self imposed. But I could be wrong if anyone can find an official reference I’d be interested to read it.

The only regulatory requirement I know of is age 65 for ICAO for international flying, and you can’t pair 2 pilots that are more than 60.

We at Wheels Up Aviation (formerly GAMA) are 135 and I’m sure we have at least one pilot over 70. I also worked at Avantair and at least at the time they, as a 91k operator, didn’t have an age limit either. But that was a few years ago.

I know limits were proposed, just don’t know if they passed.
