Age Discrimination: Fighting the CAA! (+ update)

[Whirlybird]

"Anything which would reduce the level of safety achieved so far, for example increasing the age of people flying commercially in single pilot operations, would clearly be unacceptable. Accordingly the Tribunal is satisfied that the increased safety achieved by the rule outweighs its discriminatory effects"

Translation - we think we can get away with it, and we don't want to rock the boat...after all, it's only old people we're discriminating against, and they don't count.
