WASHINGTON,
Oct. 31 /PRNewswire/ -- The Age 60 Aviation Rulemaking
Committee (ARC) gathered in Washington, D.C. last Friday for its second
meeting. Committee participants used their time together to discuss issues
associated with the Age 60 rule and share their varying perspectives on the
need for a change. The ARC also began reviewing responses to a request for
public comments issued earlier in the week.
"Clearly this is an issue that has wide-ranging implications for both
airlines and the pilot community," said ALPA President Duane Woerth and ATA
President and CEO James C. May, who serve as co-chairs of the committee.
The ARC has begun the process of drafting its report and expects to
deliver it to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) by the end of
November.
The FAA Age 60 ARC provides a forum for the U.S. aviation community to
review and make recommendations regarding the International Civil Aviation
Organization revised standard for pilot retirement age.
