I do. But there is a narrative that suggests the over 65 crowd has no place in Part 121 operations. An argument which gets more ridiculous as I get closer.

I'm sure most of the anti-67 crowd will change their minds as they get close. Wish I could watch, but I'll be long gone.

The people least capable of recognizing they are failing behind mentally are the people falling behind.

correct.

this is because you want money, not because you’re objectively evaluating cognitive decline at the population level.

those that do will be wrong about it, as well.

And the people who think that starts at 65 are fools.

There is so much wrong with your response that I won't even try to unpack it.

The fact that you assume this is about money for me tells me this is all about money for you. It's ok. But you should at least admit it.

I know you won't, but when you get to 62, try to remember what you have posted and see how well it ages.

I for one think you should be able to fly until you have an horrendous accident, then retire one day earlier.

I have an opinion and perspective, thank you very much.

How many pilots over 65 do you have experience sharing the cockpit with?
