I got in -I'm 35 - I know two 40 year olds, three late 30 year olds and three early 30 year olds that have just got in. Some of them with relatively low flying experience due to flying being their second career.

I also know a couple of 45 year olds that got through to the sim.

To say they are ageist is horse manure. They would not put people through to the sim if they did not want them in the company.

In fact - my observation would be they have a preference for people with life experience and something else to offer the airline other than stick and rudder skills....
