yeah maybe a shave under 4 years for someone starting out today and going to one of the sausage factories and hustling flying as much as they can along the way,
Beats the old days where for example the seniority list in PANAM and some major legacy airlines meant you could be in the RH seat for 15-20 years waiting for your number to get to the top. I recall watching PANAM crews at Guam. Most of the first officers and flight engineers were well over 50 and cabin crew too. .
