Started flying too late
Question, Just wondering about some opinions on this. I am 28 and a current FO with an airline. On various occasions fly with captains in their 40s or there abouts who have been flying on airlines since they were 20 etc and so if they were 44 they already have 24 years of experience mainly as captains.
A lot of them also have varied experience on different types through out the years. Also looking at young lads coming into the airlines at 19-20 who in the right airline will make captain prob before they are 25. Have to say I am quite jealous of them.
At 28 I only have a year flying on airlines. I did enjoy the job I did before aviation but I some how feel I have missed out on something by not starting out so young. I really want to make captain as soon as I can but I would still love to fly different types experience different aircraft/go long haul but, I’m probably going to be in my 60s at that stage, Any opinions. Just a thought.
