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.

That said, I encourage the OP to give it a go. When you climb into the plane,
leave your ego on the ramp. Get a good instructor, go fly, have fun, but don't
pay attention to your flight hours.
