But that begs the question, is there any current up to date evidence that supports that? In aviation the resoundig answer was „No“ and then engines didn’t have to be replaced after 3000 hours and could continue on the wing for more than 10 times longer, if their condition was still good enough.

Sadly that court case will not affect the EU age limit, but that one is under review and will most likely increase at some point, which is actually a goos thing in my view.
