The events you point out above are truly amazing and worrying. However, regulations exist to cover all these points, if the regulations are not being observed and enforced then whats the point of introducing new regulations for other totaly unrelated subjects in a vain attempt to improve something that is not a problem in the first place. The things you pointed out are fundemental, if these things cannot be controlled then the authorities are not doing their job. I do not see how you can criticise anyone just on age, I am no spring chicken and just completed a mission with a combined age of 134, if a guy has a 1st class medical and the relevant type ratings are you insinuating it is not correct for them to fly? I don't much like getting older but I do not intend to stop flying any time soon. All I am trying to say here is, let them fix what already exists and is broken, not ignore it and make more regulation to give the impression that they are actualy a required item and they know what they are doing.

"And you also stated earlier that it's a well known fact that the stats for AOC accidents are far worse than Private."
Interesting, where can one download these statistics? As the company Flight Safety Officer it would be very constructive to bring up at the next safety meeting.
On another point I did not compare the privates to flag of convenience ship operators, I used that analogy to point out the attitude of the European Regulatory Authorities.
