Pilot grounded mid-flight for being over 60
A Swiss passenger aircraft was grounded in France after officials found the pilot was over the French age limit of 60.
France is the only country in Europe to set 60 as a maximum age for pilots. A reserve pilot had to be flown in to Nice to allow the Crossair plane to continue on its flight.
Andre Dose, a spokesperson for Crossair, which is part of the Swissair group, said: "Everywhere else in Europe, 65 is the norm and we have seven or eight pilots who are over 60."
