Just for clarification, easyJet does not overfly France with pilots over 60. The pilots they have that are currently over 60 fly the Scottish routes, BFS, AMS and ATH. Also BTS, I believe. In fact, this rule as everyone knows becomes illegal on 1st October, 2006. easyJet is using this rule to cull over 60's pilots; several have been told they will not be kept on once they reach that age.
