Just stumbled on the bio of this pilot (S.B. scroll down a bit)
https://fighterpilot.com.au/our-pilots/
From SO to Captain at CX in 11 years.
That last of 11 year upgrades will occur this year. From here out, the time to command climbs hugely. 13-15 years in the next few years or so. After that, hard to say for certain, but I think well over 15 years, perhaps out to 20.
