Cabin crew tend not to know shit about their aircraft besides the general seating layouts and emergency features.
Still, I'd sign up to work as one because it's probably not as shit a job as I have now, if only I was 21. Shit laws in the US say you have to be 21 to consume or serve alcohol. Even on a regional flight where there often aren't even drinks aboard you still have to be 21.
But only 18 for a pilot.

Guys who are into aviation will blow their shit when you say a line like 'full throttle, but n1 at 85%'. Seeing the normal demographic of people who say things like that, it is quite the unexpected turn. A three-hour conversation would follow. Believe me when I say that certain people would be out to get you.

Also, 21 is a shit age to become legally adult. Other countries have proven that age could be much lower. Also, the whole idea that you become an adult overnight is outrageously false.

Well, that's the retardation of US federal law for you. In liberal hippy free land, it's 18 to do both (or maybe 16 for pilots. I dunno).

I know. I'm trying to make the adult choice of getting a not shit job that is in a field I like so I can save up for surgery/degree, but am prevented from doing so by age restrictions.

Pretty cool. I'd assume a lot of short range flights or trans-Tasman for them, so probably either the A320 or 737-300, would I be right?
I once dumbfounded a flight attendant last time I flew a Delta MD-90 telling her two of the planes were actually built in China. Of course Delta has 65 of them (with two stored) which is the majority of them built, let alone the majority still in service. N964DN and N965DN are the ones built in China. I've been on the MD-90 only thrice with Delta, once before they got the aircraft from China (used from China Southern) in 2012, so my chances have been low to actually get on one of them.
I don't fly nearly enough for my liking.

Well the shit thing is I'm stuck here for a while longer, because I can't move until I get enough money, and surgery is priority #1 (don't want anywhere I'd immigrate to to question my status as female) so I'm pretty fucked.
