However...there really are not very many young NetJets pilots on the list today. 14 years of no hiring/no up-grades has taken its toll. All the pilots are 30+ years old and the vast majority are a good bit older. Even if there is no mandatory retirement age, the seniority list will purge itself in droves soon. All the younger pilots (if we can believe what they say) will quit at a ~much~ younger age than the few dinosaurs they vociferously critcize. If one hired on at 25 years old, he could look forward to more years as a captain than a first officer. I look forward to a new batch of young pilots.
