They are also being highly optimistic both on DL hiring and on people being able to move on to DL with the expedited interview process. Have they even done the research on how many guys don't have a 4-year degree? I'd be willing to bet that 300 out of the top 500 don't make the crossover....
Out of the top 1000 there are 400ish guys that are 50 plus, there are 600-650 that are 45 plus. There are also 108 Mesaba flows that do not count in the 12 per month interview number. Then there are people who don't have 4 year degrees. Then there are people who will go to other airlines. I don't know what age most people would say its not worth it to interview or if delta would hire a 50 year old who hasn't been a fo in 30 years, but if this ever does happen interviews will come faster than people think.
