Depends, 62 is the oldest FE taken on. 55+ for 747 skippers.

While we're on the age line of inquiry, what is the notional retirement age in Dragonair?

And is this constrained by the HK CAD or Company requirements?

Retirement age for Dragon is as per HK CAD limitations, which is 60. But don't expect to stay that long on a B scale salary!

I 'm not near retiring age. But have a query on the requirements for Dragon, regarding Multi- Crew Turbine Command requirement of 1000 hrs. Could you attain this in a Twin Otter, flying multi crew ops? Or am I wasting my time?
