Will a 6' 4" man have trouble fitting into the X's cockpit? What is life like in the X at NJA?

The short answers: Yes/Rough

We have some tall guys in the X but most look for something bigger. I would "try one on" and imagine sitting in there for 4-5 hours before committing to one.

The X averages 4 legs per day and 4-9 hours flight time. Duty days are avg 12-13 hours

Would you hold off on a class date to get into a bigger cockpit if you were tall?

Anyone have any general information on NJA and NJI that might help?

Hi all, I am considering applying to NJA and NJI, I do not have the GV type but I understand I can apply to NJI with 5000 + HRS and 4000 + Jet? Not sure if that is right. What I am wondering about is the company and management in general. I have been thnking about applying but would like to know more about the company, if the pilots there are happy? What the command time frame is like? I'd greatly appreciate the information. Thanks.
