Guess I was fortunate to join Bristow in 1977 a and flew all over the world for 35 years until Age 65. I was already working partly in the S76 C+ and ++ simulator training and checking, and continued for another 6 years until Age 71, with the last few in the D simulator (yes, you can teach an old dog new tricks with the D cockpit!). Such a rewarding career, but an IF was required early in my career. With the market today, "older, mature pilots" will find it very difficult to continue work after age 60 if you aren't already employed with a Company that has arrangements to continue beyond Age 60. . Good advice given that maybe it is time to find an alternate plan. Good luck to all those nearing this "mystical" age limitation.
