too young. too young.

This is what happened if you gave commands at very early age. The minimum should be at least 26 years old.

Doesnt mean that you're 22 years old but amassed thousands flying hours, you're ready for your command. You may have a commander pedigree but certain things in life,especially split second decision does not necessarily come with relevant experience.

26 to 35 years old with similar flying hours might have more life experiences that maybe useful when making decisions. The quick decisions.

experiences are gained not bought.
