I don’t feel the average guy can be assured of having the cognitive ability to fly past 65. They will be able to pass a check ride but difficult situation could be a issue. It’s kind of like train to proficiency. You can train anyone to eventually pass a checkride. As the military has proven many times if you train someone to proficiency who falls outside the normal training footprint they are going to be a problem until they kill themselves or someone else.

....and Korea, Nanjing, Taiwan, Singapore, the Philippines, the Marianas, Thailand (once Burma), Vietnam (once French Indochina), Australia, parts of India, and parts of the Aleutians.
I'd say a few folks care very much what the Japanese are doing. Refitting two helicopter cruisers to now carry the F-35 around the Eastern Pacific has raised a few eyebrows.
