I was in indoc a few classes back. Low time guy I think was around 3.5k with all 91k/135 exp and we had a handful of retired 121 and or mil guys with 20k and a wide mix in between. I would say 30% 121, 30% 91k/125 20% mil and 20% some sort of combination

So a Space Shuttle Pilot, Lunar Module Pilot, and Air Force One Pilot walk into the Netjets interview. Only one can get hired. I wonder who it would be?

Well.....they do seem to like their spread because there are plenty of stories on here with people getting hired right over the mins -so let's all keep our fingers crossed.

My Guess is the Air Force One Pilot. He's the only one that's been trained to land while allowing the passengers to retain their teeth.

It appears that only the AF1 pilots. I know of no Shuttle pilots, but we do have a few AF1/HMX1 pilots here.

They used a few years ago when they really needed pilots. Lots of Army helo guys are here. I do not believe helo time for the mins is being considered anymore.

Was hired last December with approximately 3300 total time, 1000 turbine pic came from a regional who is based in PHX and has a great reputation. FWIW, there are about 13-16 people here junior to me that also came from that same regional. They try to have an even mix (121, 135, 91, and mil) guys and gals in each class.
