Let Experienced Pilots Fly Act of 2025
This bill raises the mandatory retirement age for pilots engaged in commercial aviation operations from 65 to 67 years of age.

The Federal Aviation Administration must also submit a report to Congress on further increasing the age limitation for pilots engaged in commercial aviation operations.
