Cheers, Alan
Thanks, I remember thinking how old and grey some of the Captains were, that I flew with when I was posted to the Strat. fleet -and in retrospect I doubt that any were even 50 !!

I think (?) I'd still enjoy 'handling the hardware' - the 14 hour nights would be a different matter tho !

Anyway, as I'm now suffering from EGBF - Electronic Gadget Brain Failure - not a chance, regardless of medical certification !

Cheers.

P.s. On the matter of the thread discussion, I was reluctant to stop at 65, but I would rate 70 as a maximum - only from personal experience of course, each to his own.
