Default Youngest Captain for B757, B767, B777 and B747

Does anyone know what's the age of youngest captain for B757, B767, B777 and B747 in whatever airline?

Just curious as I am trying to help a friend to figure out a few things...

Nothing against A300s. Just my debate with friends are about Boeing planes. Specifically we are trying to figure out if it is possible to become a Delta 767 captain at age of 24? Or someone is BS.

Default youngest capt

That is total BS....earliest age you could have gotten an atp is 23...there is a lot of seniority between new hire and 767 capt at dal...

One of my buddies at AA, hired at age 22 was 727 CA at age 28 and A300 CA
at 29, he was hired in May 1985.
