And for the record, what makes us better? Years of instructing and catching stupid mistakes before they kill us, then years of flying freight charter by ourselves and learning to watch everything for yourself rather than relying on someone else, all while developing critical hand-flying skills that you can't duplicate by letting the autopilot fly all the time. That experience is invaluable later in your career.

Well said (!)

There are two irreplaceable assets in a pilot-
Talent and Experience

As for age 65+
The only good mitigation for that is to get ahead of it and make sure they can't be captains beyond 65-
And that would still suck for those still in the military or regional ranks
