Not anymore. The age 56 rule is on its last gasping breath. The FAA
can already allow needed controllers to stay past 56 and within a few
years the limit will be gone all together.



What about the maximum age to become a controller? Is that still 30?


Yes, but will probably change. They aren't in as much of a hurry to
change that though because they can get enough new controllers thru the
colleges and retaining the old farts.
