Isn't that a bit too old? Takeshi Fumimoto's age isn't ever mentioned,
as far as I'm aware, but I never get the impression he's nearing 60.
He's never described as fat, unlike his counterpart in GR. He's compared
to Robert Redford, born in 1936 or 1937. He got married during the
sixties. And as far as his "interesting work with airplanes" and DL's
ironical remark about suicide being his former lifestyle is concerned:
DL doesn't believe many things Takeshi claims to have been or have done
-- why should we?
