Spoke to Jeremy a couple of times the last two days. For some reason it has been perplexing as to whether I have the qualifications to be hired. A few months back, Brandy did some investigating and found out that I would qualify, I was set up for an interview which I had to postpone due to a death in my family. She was VERY understanding of the issue and stated to get in touch when I was ready.

Recently, Jeremy contacted me, and the issue came up again as to whether I was qualified. After looking into it he found that I was not.

The issue is, I have an unrestricted Multi-ATP but only 800hrs fixed wing because it was an add-on. Some airlines say no problem, others say I must have the 1500 fixed wing also. I accept their decisions but my question is, are these decisions based on anything regulatory or is it just based on SOPs for each airline?

I haven't had much luck shedding light on this. Could someone shed some light as to what the requirements are or if it's just a preference for each airline. I spoke to the local FSDO and they say there should be no problem qualifying. For what it's worth, I also have a jet type rating

Long winded but thank you in advance..
