Why, Because the “left seat”, that I now occupy, the one that I earned, belongs to me and no one else. The government has no right to take away from me what is rightfully mine.

If the United States Federal Government denies any pilot who is otherwise qualified to practice in their profession, then that government must first prove that there are enough reasons to deny them the full enjoyment of their profession. If a person is denied their livelyhood for no reason other than because of their being 60 years old, then it is the Federal Government’s burden to first prove that all Part 121 pilots suffer an unacceptable decline their ability to fly beyond age 60 which poses an unacceptable safety risk to the flying public. Proof that age alone determines when a FAR Part 121 pilot must not operate aircraft in FAR Part 121 operations is something that Congress has directed the FAA to come up with but the FAA has failed produce such proof. That proof simply does not exist.

The age restriction in FAR Part 121.383(c) is clearly unconstitutional until or unless it can be proven that all Far Part 121 pilots suffer an unacceptable decline in ability to fly beyond age 60 which poses an unacceptable safety risk to the flying public,
