Since regionals did not exist in their current form 20 years ago and commuters were much smaller, there are only a handful of old commuter pilots anywhere near retirement.

It should pick up a bit in 20 years or so, but I would guess the average age is around thirty...the big surge will be in the 2040's. If airplanes haven't been banned by the global warmers by then.
