Have I missed some new evidence-based Medical discoveries?
Age 60 was set based on the then experience of medics around the world of heart attacks.
Not so long ago, this same evidence-based approach was used to extend the age to 65.
There has been no evidence so far that the age can be extended to 70. I suspect that some schedules flown by some airlines might hasten a reduction back to 60, not an increase to 70.
This law is not there for the benefit of folk who like their job, it is there for the benefit of customers, who have no desire to die just because some pilot wants to carry on flying.
End of.
