AK> AP > years.  I think James Doohan is the oldest, and he's 79 years old.
AK> AP > They need to make another one before some of them start dying.
AK>I believe that Jimmy, (Sotty), and Dee, (Doc McCoy), are both
AK>about the same age, within a few months.  They are the oldest.
Well, pretty close, anyhow. :)
Doohan & De Kelley were both born in 1920 (DeK in January, Jimmy
in March), & Shatner & Nimoy both in '31.
Takei was born in '39, so he's not 60 just yet; Koenig was born
3 years earlier, & he'll be 61 Sept. 14th.  Nichelle won't tell. :)
AK>They are getting a little to old to be believeable as active
AK>Starfleet Officers except possibly Chekov and Sulu, then they
Exactly.  It's quite obvious that they're all (certainly the
majors, at least) far too old to even ATTEMPT to try to make them
into a credible crew. }:)  I know a lot of people would like to
see them again, but as with the idea of a TOS echo, experience &
logic both dictate that is simply isn't a feasible proposition.
