It all comes down to the man. To quote my former boss he "took early retirement at age 92" and flew his airplane from the left seat on his 92md birthday. He was in the Army Air Corp in brown uniforms when the orders came down to change to blue uniforms. He was a pilot instructor for C-47 all the way through the Korean war. He went to work at the CAA and had a 3 digit employee number. Of course later it became the FAA and he worked as a pilot for them. He had filled up several log books and quit counting his hours. In all those flights he never had an off airport landing or landing that damaged the aircraft.
