And I've only been here a short time. How does a person who has such a responsible job think age has anything with how well a person does their job. As you go through life you will always work with people of all ages. GET USED TO IT. Learn from everyone you come in contact with. That's something from an old guy who's been flying 25 years. And no I'm not an expert I'm learning everyday from all the pilots I fly with. Even the young smart *** punks who think they are gods gift to aviation.
