Trump nominating former Delta pilot to international aviation post

WASHINGTON, July 17 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump is nominating former Delta Air Lines DAL.N pilot Jeffrey Anderson to serve as U.S ambassador to the International Civil Aviation Organization, the White House said on Thursday.
The nomination comes as some U.S. senators want the Trump administration to advocate at ICAO for raising the mandatory retirement age for airline pilots from 65 to 67.
The United States has not had a permanent ambassador at the Montreal-based United Nations civil aviation body since July 2022 when C.B. "Sully" Sullenberger, the commercial pilot who safely landed an Airbus A320 on New York's Hudson River in 2009 after hitting a flock of geese, stepped down.
