BTW doesn't the FAA have an age limit for commerical airlines pilots? Why aren't they evaluated solely upon performance and physical fitness? Shouldn't someone be upset that we don't have 70 year-old pilots out there?

Yes they do, but it sure ain't 50 years old. According to a friend of mine who is, or rather was, a senior pilot for American Airlines, the mandatory retirement age is 65.
