Default Too Old?

What I'm saying doesn't conflict with the Pass= fly regardless of age. It
simply RECOGNIZES that at a certain point while following the "plan", a
pilot WILL reach a specific point in time where the medical can no longer
be passed. In other words, Fail= no longer fly.


'cepen now there is the "let it expire and be a sport pilot" option. Or,
the "never did need a medical" glider option if you don't like some of the
sport pilot limitations (you are still stuck with 2 place). Some "self
launch gliders" will run circles around what a number of people here fly as
SEL... How about 140 knots at altitude from a turbo Rotax

(All this assuming, of course, that the reason for failing doesn't
compromise your ability to act as PIC).
