Age 70 for international pilots?

band of brothers

Good post cptn joao i flew A320`s until 65, and even though i was mentally still agile, at that age certain things become very difficult if not impossible for example climbing into an emer raft (mind you there are lots of F/O`s in the same "boat") this topic is like politics both sides opinions will never change but youngsters who spout crap about medicals and safety, when thier real reason is they just want quicker promotion, are a disgrace to "flying" there was a day when ALL pilots were a "band of brothers" and willing to go to any lenghts to help each other.
ask yourself--when have i ever heard of a older pilot dying at the controls
and even more important "will i as F/O be able to handle it if its a dark and stormy night"
