:ugh:Anyone know of actual examples, and regulatory reference information (ICAO or FAA) regarding ability to fly after age 65? Realize can't line fly, therefore interested in training activities: sim instructor, ground and flight training, initial operational experience, LOFT, LineIndoc, and the like. Captain ratings on B757, 727-200/100, DC9, DC8, CV240/340/440/580. Would like information on currency requirements, etc if possible..Thanks

I do believe the EASA regs will require you to be under age 65, with a medical for any TRI/TRE training positions. The current CAA regs may require that as well. There are opportunities in the US for sim instructors over age 65 if you have the right quals. Good luck!

I'm dreaming of checking out on a J3. My next type will have a tail wheel, one radio and be painted yellow. Types DC6, B707, C46, HS748,DC9, Md80, L10, B738,7, A343,5 and 6.

probably a smarter plan? Hard to support the ex's driving a J3 however.

I thought they had removed the upper age limit in NZ....
