This age limit is nuts. Retired military would be good candidates for this, but they are pretty much excluded.

I'm not sure I agree. Sure, old geezers could hold a gun but there might certainly be circumstances aboard an aircraft that call for close-in, hand-to-hand combat. I'd prefer a younger person protecting my plane than some old duffer with a bad back.

Sorry Charlie.

I am that old geezer with a bad back.

I can teach anyone to kill very quickly with their bare hands from the front or behind the bad guy. You don't have to be super strong. You just need the knowledge and the guts to use it.
