It was a blessing though, preferred the bus at the time but other than a stagnant stint of reserve in JFK for a few months, getting and serving my time on the 190 moved me along fast in the QOL department and I’m going to try and be one of the guys to fly it to the beer can recycle factory if I can

NK, hired 10 years ago at 45. 8K TT, 4K TPIC, least experience in class, age, right in the middle. 90+% of the FOs I fly with are around 25, with 0TPIC, and less than 500 multi. Brave new world. Applied to the be LCA, if I'm doing OE every leg, might as well get paid for it.
