Airline Pilots Against Age Discrimination (APAAD) is a grass-roots organization of airline pilots from every major airline in the United States.

APAAD opposes age discrimination on the flight decks of our nation's airliners.

APAAD is working to shape public opinion and policy leading to the elimination of the Federal Aviation Administration Age 60 Rule.

Our website, APAAD serves as a clearing house for information and research addressing the Age 60 Rule. The best safety device on our nations airliners is an experienced pilot!
