I personally know pilots who were hired at age 60 by the fracs.
1. Do you personally know anyone older than that when they were hired?
2. How old were they?
I have a client who was a TWA captain, and when the merge occurred, he took early retirement, went to NetJets (where he was very happy) and flew up to 65. The guy was, and still is, in great mental and physical shape. It would have been criminal if he would have had to hang up his wings. You can probably find him mountain biking in the Peruvian Andes now...LOL
