This is all second hand as told to me by a over 60 non-retired pilot. I haven't had time to research it, but I figured he is following it closely since it affects him and his plans.
Nothing will happen in congress this year on age 60. It is not impossible that the FAA goes along with the ICAO mandate, but it sort of seems odd that they would open themselves up to that sort of liability without first doing some pretty major studies and going through the rule making process.
