Friend of mine is an ag pilot at 75.


Flying and learning to fly are two very different things.

The original poster shouldn't have any more problems flying, going
solo, doing the training and getting a PPL than any-one younger.


That's simply not true. People of any age can take flight training, but on
average the older you are, the longer it will take to make you a safe pilot.


And the less flight time you will have to perfect the art.
