Without wishing to knock what Ernest Trent does, I believe the oldest person in the world to hold a full pilot's licence (according to Wikipedia, anyway) is 93-year old Hans-Ekkehard Bob, 62-victory Luftwaffe ace in WW2. |
Bob Hoover, the Famous Test Pilot, was denied a FAA medical when he was in his seventies and so could not fly as a display pilot. He got round it by going to Australia and getting a medical there.
