    Not too long ago the age of 62 was the retirement age for airline pilots. The age was extended until 65 mostly due to medical advancements and recognition that older pilots with experience are well qualified. However, it is my understanding that the first officer must be of a younger age as a compensating factor.

    Thank you for this interview. Now we know we have qualified pilots. Experts are never featured. The press has only been featuring "The lady who will fly 787 from NBI to JFK". Kenyan media love to highlight "kenyan flying girls". With horror stories of two girls flying low into the mountains. Believe it or not, people trust a man in control more. You will have more customers because of this interview.

From the surface it might look like it's celebration of a new route but underneath it is all marketing... pretty smart if you asked me.
