Ages ranging from 27 to 61 with an average of 39.
So I retired from the AF after 20, but spent the last year at jetBlue before getting the DAL CJO. So am I counted as a civilian or military? My guess is civilian but I consider myself military. I know a lot of my friends from the Air Force that did other 121 gigs before Delta. I don't think these numbers tell the real story.
