On my EU Flight Crew Licence, issued by the CAA in 2014:
Page 3, Note IX (Validity) "This licence shall remain in force for the holder's lifetime unless revoked suspended or varied.
The privileges of the licence shall be exercised only if the holder has a medical certificate for the required privilege."

Now I have no axe to grind as I am happily retired, enjoyed it while I did it, and most certainly do not miss dragging myself out of bed at half past stupid o'clock.

However - the reading of note IX more than implies that once you've got the licence then you've got it for good. The limiter is that you must have the medical to use it. So where does it say you cannot pass a medical at 65+??
