I understand that many of the less mainstream airlines are less worried about age now. Most pilots stay less than 5 years with them anyway, so why should they care, as long as you are under 55? With a pilot shortage rapidly developing, those that discriminate only increase their own costs as they hire from a smaller pool. Some no longer ask you to pay the type rating either. It's the way the business goes. In 5 or 6 years time it'll be different, but the good times are coming.
