Way I understood the news last night, this co-pilot went from no experience at all to having a commercial carrier license with 600 hours and 100 hours in the A320 within 3 years, and by the age of 26.
I know our military pilots do the same, but at least they go through some very extensive training and are watched over and tested to no end.
Just can't see it for someone not in the military.
