Hi,
Just for info and to "level the playing field", here are the texts of ICAO Annex 1 and JAR-FCL 1 on max age:

ICAO Annex 1:
2.1.10.1 A Contracting State, having issued pilot licenses, shall not permit the holders thereof to act as pilot-in-command of an aircraft engaged in scheduled international air services or non-scheduled international air transport operations for remuneration or hire if the licence holders have attained their 60th birthday.
JAR-FCL 1:
1.060 (a) Age 60–64. The holder of a pilot licence who has attained the age of 60 years shall not act as a pilot of an aircraft engaged in commercial air transport operations except:
(1) as a member of a multi-pilot crew and provided that,
(2) such holder is the only pilot in the flight crew who has attained age 60.

(b) Age 65. The holder of a pilot licence who has attained the age of 65 years shall not act as a pilot of an aircraft engaged in commercial air transport operations.
This age limit in JAR-FCL applies only to commercial air transport, and not to aerial work, corporate aviation, instruction/training flights, testing, etc.
