Age when applying/hired @ Regionals
What do senior pilots think about really young (under 23) pilots getting hired w/ the regionals. Do the younger pilots get the same about of respect as the older ones? What if you were a captain and had to choose between a 35 year old w/ 500/50 or a 21 year old w/ 1200/150, who would you rather fly with w/o meeting either. Maybe age does not mean s#@* or it does, just a matter of ones opinion.

I'll only be at the regionals until I get hired by the majors.

That may have held true 10+ years ago...but I reckon it'll be rather difficult now, if only because a four year degree will be used as a screening tool just like total time, an ATP, etc.
