And before you ask, I'm not anywhere near mandatory retirement, and I'm not interested in getting someone else's job just because they were forced to retire....

Five year or more of falsifying federal documents is not going to end well for him.

I hope he's sent to prison. And not white collar country club prison either. I mean federal, pound me in the *** prison.

**** on that guy

Not even close to being true. There are MANY jobs that have mandatory age limts...

Hell, even American Idol has a max age... ;)

Get a clue. It is not the only industry which requires mandatory retirement at a certain age. Some examples off the top of my head: FBI and other federal agents (57), ATC controllers (56- with certain exceptions), some states Supreme Court Justices, Federsl Psrk Rangers, etc. etc....

But the requirement aside, I'd rather not be flying on a plane with an 80 year old pilot, even if he/she was healthy and sound of mind. I don't want to share the roads with them, let alone the skies.

Nevermind. Point made by other posters.

Be careful what you say... you never know when you might have to eat your words. You/we really don't know his story, and as such, probably have no grounds by whih to judge this guy. The FAA, on the other hand, is a completely different story.
