You'd be right. He was still flying for JAL when he started writing Pelican's Perch fore AvWeb. He hit the age at which he could no longer fly as PIC, but continued to fly as a first officer. He mentioned in one if his columns having to instruct some of his co-workers to quite addressing him as "Captain" as he wasn't serving in that role any more.
