Pilot's retirement age - Singapore

[Five Livers]

Could someone please tell me what the retirement age is for pilots at the moment in Singapore and also if there any imminent plans to increase it?

Thanks

The current retirement age is 60. However, there are strong rumors the age will be increased to 62 and then 65.

Phil, heard there was a few ex AN blokes rangling for Sim jobs, to tide them over until the rules change,then they will try and go back flying.

Yeah, 60 or 62; but only dependant on whether you are deemed to satisfy the medical requirements.

I know SQ is looking for SIM instructors, but haven't heard anything about guys hiding out. The problem is no one knows when the change will occur. Although, for myself 62 has been already loaded into my personnel file!
