Ferguson the oldest rookie PLT???
Is 'Fergie' the oldest man to ever make his first flight
in the PLT seat? If so, by how much? I'm presuming he's being groomed for a quick turnaround as a future CDR.

Bob Crippen? Brian Hank Hartsfield at 48 years old on STS-4. Well, that certainly does me good; I turned 49 this past March. I know now how my dad felt while watching John Young take command of STS1, back in '81 (Dad was 49 that year). -- ..
