I thought I heard someone posted something about a guy on IOE on the -400 that is 64 yrs old.
No. There are a few 64 year olds going through training/IOE. The last bid the company posted stated that if you had not turned 64 by close of bid would be trained. I have my opinion why this more unusual position was taken for bid closing,etc, but it boils down to generally complying with the contract and a non precedent decision (IMO).
