And since worthy Wing Commander Fowler thinks I am a tit then I am sure he will have some very good advice for us all on how you convince a financially strapped pilot who's not performing too well that it's a good time to throw in the towel
Skol - it's not my place to do that any more than it is yours to criticise "ALL" over 60's! I venture to suggest (if I may be so bold) that you are either left seat in an aeroplane you feel you should have "moved on from" some time ago or right seat and feeling your time for the left is here and now...... Well my friend, in any case, you are where you are and you will have to deal with it! I think it is generally accepted that our minds do not speed up with advancing years but I have met a few 60 year olds who are quicker thinking than some young guns. Please don't tag all people at 60 as incapable of doing a damn fine job! It is not nice and it's certainly not wise......
