Unhappy

I recall making a complete hash of a sortie at the age of 19 in an RAF training aircraft.

As we shut down my QFI (who was just old enough to have been serving at the end of WW2) asked me my age.

"19 Sir"
"There were people fighting in the battle of Britain at your age, buck your ideas up".

They are either good or bad aviators, at 22 they are quite old enough (or young enough!) to be either. Best of luck to them. I must say, it sounds to me like they've done my homework and deserve success.
