President Bush
pilots of 60+ are hugely more experienced..
I do agree. You do have a lot more experience at 60 than at 20! That is a " no brainer". But there comes a point when your vast experience does not compensate your age! That crossing point seems to be around 60. Some should probably leave at 55 even (the arrogant ones).
If 60+ is such a good thing why wonīt the legislator allow both pilots being 60+ ?
Oh.. and mister President just for your info itīs been a couple of decades since I were:
some ignorant whippersnapper in his 20s
Get a life! Go fishing enjoy your grandchildren and leave the flying to us "old geasers" with not so vast experience (but can hold our own)and with some mental capacity left.
