you guys will be surprised to learn that in India commercial jets are flown by CPL holders with the minimum hours, which they have logged on the Pushpak aircraft and on Cessna 152's, which are the aircrafts flown in the flying clubs. As a result, with the induction of these people into all the commercial airlines in India, there are a whole bunch of young commanders, some of which have got their command on the 737 at the age of 22. so, age as far as Im, concerned is a state of mind for command. Its the experiece that counts and the ones on type are welcomed, especially when its from the right seat to the left.
