headsethair,
The 60 year age limit is, as I understood it, not related to holding a commercial licence, nor being paid but but rather flying single crew public transport. If it ain't public transport, then the age 60 limit does not apply........ You can earn money as a commercial pilot flying single crew, but you can't fly PT single crew.
ANO Schedule 8 Excerpt:
Curtailment of privileges of licence holders aged 60 years or more
The holder of a licence who has attained the age of 60 years but not attained the age of 65 years shall not act as a pilot of a helicopter on a public transport flight except where the holder is:
a) a member of a multi-pilot crew; and
b) the only pilot in the flight crew who has attained the age of 60 years
At least, that is my understanding.
