Haters gonna hate, yo. Hate the game, not the player.
You can’t be mad at a kid who took advantage of a program offered by the company. This whole thread reminds of that joke......what’s the difference between a b!tch and a wh0re?
This kid works here now and will have 42 year career. Look at the top of our list today, the sub UA ‘78 hires are sitting at about that longevity. How much crap to you give them?
The smart money is on lifting this kid up, teaching him about labor’s past, and making a strong unionist out of him. Like it or not, he’s going to carry the torch to 2060. Shun him (and other young pilots) or teach them, that’s on us.

He’s got as much (maybe more) airline experience as a career mil guy. Apparently he met min standard which probably includes being current. So yeah, to the scantron, he’s more qualified.

No, and there’s no point losing sleep over this. Also a high-ish timer when hired here. The company hires plenty of retired mil, 10-15k+ hr regional people, etc. Every single company also takes some low time, young pilots. The only thing we can hope is they vet them well.

If his dad had any semblance of common sense he wouldn’t be spouting off at all that it was his kid that got hired at 23 amongst pilots. If you feel the need to brag do it towards friends outside of work. Only drawing uneeded attention to the kid.
