All about timing.
What are you talking about? A military flow in the late 80's, I had not heard of that.
In reality, I assume that in the late 80's many civilian and military pilots sent their apps in to Delta,
competed for jobs and 400 were hired.
Everybody is turning this into a mil vs civ thing. Never have I said anything even remotely indicating that. If the military did have a flow I would argue the same issue, reversed. My son flys for a regional and would like to compete for a Delta job just as much as my mil buds.
