Hmm, in which case, then oldest Cosmonaut will be - Georgi Katys, a cosmonaut that never flew!  But he's 83 as well.  After him, I have Vladimir Shatalov (82), and then Anatoli Filipchenko (81).  But, it can be hard to find out when a cosmonaut has died, especially in American press - so easy to miss sometimes.  In fact, as I write this, I'm thinking I should check up on Shatalov.  Seems I read something about his death a few years ago.  So forgive me if my information is incorrect.
