well said alienpilot. Age is a number as they say. No replacement for experience but in terms of hours or monsoons not in years. If good training and standards are maintained age will not matter. Ive seen some very good very young guys and some very experienced old guys, dum asses who dont know their front side from thier back side. For all those wishing and betting on an accident in india hope it happens closer to your home so u can c it rather than read about it. its a shame.......
