I remember the Delta hiring brief at WIA this year where they mentioned they were so 'impressed' by all the qualifications their 23 and 24 year old new hires had obtained at such a young age.
This entire industry is all about luck and timing. Look at all the folks that had it made at places like TWA, Eastern, Branniff, etc only to have it pulled out from under them. Hating on the kids that happen to be at the right place and time with the qualifications to go straight to a legacy serves absolutely no purpose other than making one bitter about their own career failures.
