Age 65 is irrelevant.
April marks the end of Commands on the pax fleet for pax joiners. All future pax commands for quite some time will now go to those who joined as freighter pilots to fly solely the freighters, were told they were only flying freighters, and then got the AOA to get them across onto the pax fleet at the beginning of 2000.
It will be years and years and years before anyone who joined as an S/O gets even a look at the left seat, from April add on at least 4-6 to the 8 it currently takes
Thank you AOA.
