The Fair Treatment for Experienced Pilots Act lets pilots fly until they reach 65, provided they pass medical tests taken twice a year. It also mandates that air carriers perform additional proficiency checks on pilots over 60, such as line checks every six months. The pilots must also continue to take training and qualification programs.
