Question

How old was the youngest Boeing 747-400 captain?

Answer 1

Ed Maxwell: In May 1990 he became a 747 captain with UPS at 25

Answer 2

I don't know but the minimum age to receive an ATP certificate is 23.  And one does not become a professional pilot over night.  By the time you earn the required ratings,  flight time, and experience to be captain aboard a 747 will take years of flying so the youngest 747 captain probably would not have been so young.

Answer 3

Seems to me I read, long time ago, that a 23-24 year old was a Captain on a 747. He was flying for either FedEx or UPS (I lean toward UPS)

Google it

Answer 4
