since you claimed all it would take is the faa administrator doing an nrpm, i'm not sure you know how it works “inside the beltway.”

Should’ve quit while ahead.

An amendment, rider, revision, repeal all mean the same thing to 65 year olds. FARs will fall inline with the Admin’s position. One way or the other. For legislators, clearly a no jeopardy vote. Airplanes won’t start falling out of the sky. AMEs will smile. Passengers will board all the same. So it goes. Inside the ropes.

Fwiw, I’m 65. Collect pocket change from 40 somethings all the time at the 19th hole. Class 1 pass, no worries. Swing tip; word salad is healthier than Cinnabon speak.

That flex was about as odd as the one done for Nehl’s

Speaking of that… I’ve always wondered if English isn’t your primary language. Trying to decipher your posts is always a challenge.

Sooner than later, this thing WILL pass. Copy? The means still undetermined.

A lack of self awareness to think that anyone would be impressed, think it to be healthy, manly, intelligent, or whatever in the world the said flexer is trying to convey. When we look at this, do we think, “Wow, now there’s a guy who has totally managed to avoid cognitive decline?”

None of which makes a difference. You can believe me or you can disagree in error. Present industry standards can & will be met or exceeded by thousands of qualified, proficient 65 yo’s.

No, what I’m saying is it’s the same lack of self awareness we often find in older folks assessing their cognitive abilities.
They think they “still got it”.
