The guy I was flying with yesterday mentioned that ICAO had already approved age 67. It won't be long till it reaches across the pond. This apparently came from someone in a recurrent ground school at American.
I had not heard this before...so I don't know if its accurate.

FYI, here's the current ICAO rule(s):
The ICAO Council adopted on 10 March 2006 an amendment to Annex 1 — Personnel Licensing that increases by five years the upper age limit for commercial pilots operating two-pilot aircraft, subject to conditions. The new provisions become applicable on 23 November 2006 and read as follows:
Note that Contracting States may allow pilots to fly beyond age 65 as long as they only do so domestically (example: Canada). (source)2.1.10.1 A Contracting State, having issued pilot licences, shall not permit the holders thereof to act as pilot-in-command of an aircraft engaged in international commercial air transport operations if the licence holders have attained their 60th birthday or, in the case of operations with more than one pilot where the other pilot is younger than 60 years of age, their 65th birthday.
2.1.10.2 Recommendation.— A Contracting State, having issued pilot licences, should not permit the holders thereof to act as co-pilot of an aircraft engaged in international commercial air transport operations if the licence holders have attained their 65th birthday.
2.1.10.2 Recommendation.— A Contracting State, having issued pilot licences, should not permit the holders thereof to act as co-pilot of an aircraft engaged in international commercial air transport operations if the licence holders have attained their 65th birthday.
In addition, ICAO is considering a proposal to remove the age 60 limit for FOs when paired with a >60 CA.

Cadetdriver...
I got the impression this was something that happened more recently than 2006. I haven't had time to research it yet.
