Thank you for making my point.
Let’s do this... let’s go to the local FBO and make the claim that old pilots are safer than young pilots and watch you get laughed off the ramp.
Response times and short window critical thinking finish significantly with age. Deal with it.
Another thing, I’m 41. I didn’t start doing this last week. Keep defending pilots over 65 as generally ‘safe’. A position only a biased person over 65 would hold.
Do you either of you even fly?
