    We want a captain with a good technical understanding of the aircraft, good flying skills, good decision making skills, and who functions well under pressure. It's far from clear that you get any of that as a consequence of supervising an autopilot for thousands of hours. She's apparently demonstrated that she has what it takes to be a captain, so what has her age got to do with it?

    Why is everyone being so rude and offensive to young Pilots? IN the Uk rules are different for a reason. Because we know. You can train people to become much better at an ealier age. And I'm sure if you were a captain at 26 you wouldn't mind taking all these congrats would you? Aviation is very strict and they do have the skill. Why would Easyjet even put there passengers at risk otherwise imagine the refunds and all the insurance. That is my opinion.

    My main concern with such young pilots is lack of "unplanned" events experience... i.e. a young pilot will only have had 3/4 winters on line flying experience before taking command, you could have a flight deck with both pilots put in a situation way out of their comfort zones and with no previous knowledge to call upon. Sadly pilots now days are more computer operators than aviators ...

However for the guys/girls commenting they're too young... that's just rubbish. With the correct training and attitude, age isn't an issue. The older they are doesn't automatically make them better... in plenty of cases they are actually worse than their younger counterparts.

    I don't know about EasyJet but you do the captain and the first officer have the same license and rating to fly that equipment. In airlines, the employee seniority number determines your career, equipment, routes, position, and if or when you get furloughed. If Easyjet, and if a normal airline, hired a highly experience ex airline captain off the street that new experienced captain would start off as a junior co-pilot.

      Those 2 years, on the other hand, are very intense. I've heard of some who only got a week of holiday at christmas and easter during training (compare that to 3, ~9 week semesters at University). Whilst yes it's not 12,000 hours, you can only expect to have accumulated that many hours half way through your career (which coincides with the time when most pilots become captains anyway).

    Pilots for regional airlines, tend to make much lower salaries than pilots for major airlines. For most airline pilots, working at regional airlines is usually a stepping stone to their next job. She should try to go to BA as soon as possible.

    I'm absolutely proud of both of them. As they mentioned they are the youngest. That doesn't mean that the flight deck only has teenagers damn it. I am sure they are much more focused and motivated than 99% of the rest of the miserable people. I wish them lots of fun and success and I would be happy to fly with them even in emergency situation because I trust the European CFIs and the European Aviation body as well.

      You obviously know nothing about checklists in any industry. They are there to ensure you don't miss anything 100% of the time. One small memory lapse could have disastrous results. You use the list to methodically go through everything without fail

    I have a problem about this male 19 year old pilot. This may be a budget airline and it looks as if they are employing budget pilots. Are non-graduates now recruited as pilots? Does he even have any A levels? How can he possibly have the necessary education level and number of flying hours and experience at that age to fly a commercial passenger jet?

    • @drknow1997
      @drknow1997 2 года назад

      That’s what I am talking about. How many flying hours between both of them? It’s just too young. God forbid and unforeseen even happens , they have the emotional capacity of a 19 and 25 year old , who are far from mature.

    Great credit to her but what everyone fails to mention is that that lack of age restriction applies to budget airlines only. You need less hours hence why she's made it this soon at this age. It's a total impossibility to be a captain male or female at 26 for a major airline. Nearly all captains start around 40 at the very earliest in this case but most I would say start around 50+ and there are some who never even make it.

      That is very true!Austrian Airlines,Lufthansa etc,do not have any Captains in their twenties!The salaries are less in budget airlines also!Also what is not mentioned is that budget airlines lay off pilots from time to time.That first officer at 19 is probably a partly sponsored cadet.Which means his parents give him half and EasyJet give the other half!Then bond you for at least 5 years and you can be layed off then taken on again then layed off!You can't go and fly elsewhere in between.

    Back in the 1970s, a qualified female pilot applied for a job with Ansett, an airline that flew throughout Australia and also to Asian international destinations. She was rejected at every stage because she was female. "She won't be able to eject from the cockpit because her earrings will get in the way" was typical. It finally went to the High Court and she won! www.abc.net.au/news/2019-06-19/ansett-discrimination-history-australias-first-female-pilot/11207292
    I was very annoyed about this and since then I've looked for female pilots. So good on you, Kate. And, phew, 26 is very young to be a Captain. She must be brilliant.
