Who is oldest glider pilot
Until a few months ago, in Italy there were two over-100 years old airplane pilots. Great stories, great people. Unfortunately we lost them. One of them last flew solo at about 99yo. He lived on his own, so sometimes drove his car to pick his daughter up from the "silver years" residence she lived at, and took her for a short flight in the MotorFalke or Morane.
And no, there were no mistakes at birth certificates in Italy. Aldo Cernezzi
