At my Chinese airline no ExPats can go beyond age 60. Several of the Chinese Captains have attempted to continue and NONE have passed the medical as no CAAC Doc will sign your medical. In China if you have a medical incident the Doc who signed your medical is punished so nobody will take the risk. You would think this would be a good way to gain some more pilots by removing the restriction but things change slowly in China. The women can now continue beyond age 50 until age 55 but there are none in that age group at my airline. There are a handful of young women age 25-33ish but only a handful.
