70, are you guys kidding? Who would ride in a plane flown geriatrics?
Darkman, You got it right man.
Time for these old generals to move out and get out of their Vietnam era dogfight mindsets in the cockpits. 65 is surely more than enough. I've known quite a number barely at 60 handing controls to the f/o after gear up. Just to wake up for the meals and an occasional fart and pee.
CRM as far as they are concerned means Captain Running the Mothership!
If they haven't got their money and retirement plans in place by 60, then they better plan to go rob a bank!
Just give the younger guys a break as well OK?
