Just tell him the truth. There is a zero percent chance for him. This isn’t getting raised in ICAO by then. Even if it did, congress would still have to change the law. The government is currently shut down. The FAA bill didn’t attach it, it can’t be attached to the reconciliation bill, and there are numerous other bigger fish to fry before a stand alone bill about pilot age is considered.
How is it going to be “close” for this guy?!
Send more money.
