We have a winner. This is exactly the real issue. It is true that your thinking slows down as you age, but experience is a big help in compensating for that. Training at a legacy is still a ton of work, but these days it is extremely spoon fed compared to what we went through when you showed up cold to 727 systems training. The bottom line is that even though you may not be as quick as you were, it isn’t enough of a hindrance to prevent a person from doing well in training.
