I'm amazed at the number of new hires hired over 55, even a few over 60? What's the rationale in that? The old conventional wisdom was the company needed a pilot to stay as long as possible to amortize the training and general employment costs, hence the old " 28 or your unlikely to get major job". I was the oldest guy in my EA class at 33 in '85.

Hmmmm....
