We've got more than 1 at this point.

The one that had to wait at the end of his training for his 23rd birthday last summer is already gone. To Delta.

I heard about that on this trip... LUCKY!!!

If that kid keeps hustling while he's young he could retire in 20 years at 43 with a nice nest egg, or pull way back after and live a super senior good life. By the time he's 63 he'd have 40 years seniority. That's gotta result in pick of trips.

What's also interesting is that there is some good projected retirement coming up, so he's not only in early he's likely to have good progression if he wants it.

Not bad for someone who doesn't get it?

So you’re knocking down a 23 year olds success? He passed his check rides without a problem, got a waiver to complete OE early, flying the line, has had a good word put out by multiple senior captains on top of being an awesome guy to overnight with. At 23 with almost 10 internal recs and many outside recs, he was hired as an experiment which has obviously been successful.

I don’t see what you’re getting at. One of the youngest 767 pilots in the world and he’ll be a captain at 25...yea he really just doesn’t get it at all.

If he wasn’t on probation he would be glad to chime in here and not just burn a bridge, but he will blow it the **** up. He’s not one to burn bridges but you’re giving him a damn good reason to. Because of *******s like you, he smartened up since JC and got off the forums to distant himself from the crusty and the bitter like yourself. Sounds like he struck your nerve without doing anything...and now you’re in here dragging him into it? That’s pretty pathetic on your part. Don’t you have better things to do with your time?

So he posts a few pictures of having a drink in different parts of the world, what’s the problem?

You sound like a blast to have an overnight with; not to mention sharing a cockpit...go try and knock someone else down for doing good for themselves...and then after that, go pound sand.

Great first post! What are you drinking tonight? When's upgrade training? :D

BTW, and FWIW, etc, I think guys who dump on 23 year olds (or anyone else) for their success are lame and bitter. But if yo...er I mean he were 40, he would probably just cash his check and let the forums say the poop that forums say.

I've been on APC for years but haven't had the need to keep up with the forums on here but seeing this and having to flown with the kid made me have to throw a word in on it. He'll be set in his 40s if he gets out to a legacy. Hell, he'll be fine at Atlas and have some damn good seniority too if he decides to stay.

GrummanCT doesn’t need me to defend him...but he isn’t exactly what most would consider “old and crusty”.

Discretion better part of valor and all that...especially on Twitbook.
