Prop Turns: What's a birthday? Pilot Mandatory Retirement Age
http://propturns.blogspot.com/2012/11/whats-birthday-pilot-mandatory.html

The age limit was changed in 2007 to 65 for the same reasons. The consensus was that once you hit your 65. Birthday you were automatically unsafe to fly. Is there a correlation between birthdays and safety? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Senior Seminar Blog Fall 2012. Joe Moore's Flight Blog. Final Sr. Seminar Blog.
