I thought FAA regs were that you could not fly commercial flights after the age of 60. Isn't that what he was doing flying commercial flights?

Maybe a few more liberal muggings like this and they would support caps on lawsuits.

American commercial pilots have to retire on their 60th birthday. Many fly private jets after their retirement from the airlines, as there are no age restrictions. Some are retired military pilots who the airlines would not hire. Many private pilots are those who could not get a job in commercial aviation, the ultimate career for a civilian pilot.
