Bill > S4607

This bill, the "Let Experienced Pilots Fly Act," amends Title 49 of the United States Code to raise the mandatory retirement age for pilots engaged in commercial aviation operations from 65 to 67 years old. The bill also requires that pilots aged 60 and above must have a first-class medical certificate that expires every 6 months, and that air carriers must continue to use pilot training and qualification programs approved by the Federal Aviation Administration. The provisions in the bill are intended to allow experienced pilots to continue flying for longer, while maintaining safety standards.
