Had a UPS jumpseater the other day out of SDF and he had these sweet pork chop sideburns.

On the mustache subject. FAR 121.918.B(1)d. states: Any male pilot upon reaching his 31st birthday who posesses an Airline Transport Pilot certificate with at least one type rating must: within three calendar months grow facial hair on his upper lip including but not limited to each of the sides of his mouth. And within five calendar months must provide the Administrator with photographic compliance with this rule.

There it is right from the FAA!
 
HIRED!

Just got a class date last week at the ripe old age of 22!
 
I've never seen a airline pilot with anything more than a mustache, would loke kinda funny though. I think the cargo guys have more slack on that issue.
 
Yea...all the UPS guys have beards.

Just for grins: my dad got hired by in '66 Eastern at age nineteen...too young to sit on the panel, so he went straight to the right seat.

And he had no facial fair. (Who does at nineteen?)
 
Which airlines have hired people at 18 and 19? I've heard of COEX, but supposedly the 18 year old was the chief pilot's son.
 
I was 20 at my first,22 at my second, and soon to be 23 at my third. I should be about 59 by time I make it to the majors.
