The fact that you assume this is about money for me tells me this is all about money for you. It's ok. But you should at least admit it.
I know you won't, but when you get to 62, try to remember what you have posted and see how well it ages.
How is it not about money for you?
If you love flying, and are a “true aviator” as the EPAS group has started claiming, you can continue to fly as a hobby.
If you want to continue as a career, there are part 91/135 operators or flying schools who could greatly use your mentorship.
You just want to stay at the top of the pay scale for two more years at the detriment of everyone below you.
You may be surprised how well you feel in your 60’s, but don’t be surprised by the retirement age. It was there long before you ever stepped foot on a plane.
