Have any one heard of this. I was told it was part of the deal to change the retirement age. Once a year after 60 you have to take a special eval ride or test. I heard UAL is doing it and guys are starting to fail. Any one else hear this or was I getting my yanky yanked?
 
they do require an additional line check post 60, I think once every six months, instead of once per year. This might be the "senile ride" you're talking about.
 
wouldn't they be getting a yearly (or nearly yearly) checkride regardless?

I do it every other week to Asia. I am getting tired of the baby sitting.

It has gotten to the point of needing to fill-out an FSAP report after each leg.

Pardner, for the love of all that is holy, you need to video some of their sleeping on the flight deck and post it to youtube...
