I have an enquiry about Pilot Retirement as we do have a short of Captains. My question here under EASA rules can we extend the age of retirement from 65 to 67 or more if their health allows that.
Your reply would be appreciated.

Nice article promoted in Flight Safety Information of Nov. 6 that I wish sharing with you: https://simpleflying.com/little-known-pilot-rules-guide/.
Summary:
- Pilots must carefully manage their time, especially when facing delays or extended duty periods, to comply with regulations and ensure a smooth operation.
- Fuel management is crucial for pilots, as they need to consider delay fuel, engine warm-up time, and their planned takeoff amount to avoid any complications during the flight.
- Pilots closely monitor their duty time limits and work with ground controllers to expedite their taxi or find alternative routes when nearing their maximum duty time to get passengers to their destinations on time.

Hi John, thanks for a well put together package once again! And thank you for highlighting the winter operations bulletin published by Traficom.
I would like to point out that we also have another winter ops bulletin that is targeted more for the general aviation community, and it is available in English here: https://uutiskirjeet.traficom.fi/a/s/165726507-f4c56f9e5d19ab67b72ebab9…
If you'd like to include it at some point as well :)

Maybe this is already answered in a former question...related to ORO.GEN.205 (contracted activities), what will be the requirement for an Operator (NCC/SPO) to ensure compliance of Jepp. or LIDO contents (e.g. operating minima)?
