Yeah but they were not old enough to directly feel the effects of that back then since none of them were college graduates trying to start their aviation careers just yet. If anything that age group's timing into this industry was impeccable as they were able to benefit from the reduced interest rates on federal student loans after the '08 crash and they didn't have to wait out the severe backlog in the career pipeline from the combined age 65/recession black swan event.
