How old is too old to fly?

There was a guy I flew with in the 727 some years ago, a close friend at
the
time. His Dad had retired from United some years before that, and was
still
flying a corporate craft -- KA-200, iirc -- at the age of 81 when he
finally
retired. That was in the early nineties.

Just as an aside/addendum, I recall my friend telling me that when his Dad
closed his logbook, he had well over 41,000 hours documented, and had not
even logged a few years of barnstorming in the thirties.
