They did in 2007 and I'd expect the question in about any interview. Back then they wanted to see a long term interest in Delta ... even my quip about having "a poster of Liz Hurley on one wall and a Delta 757 on the other ... for the same reason" generated a laugh and then, "no really, tell us when you wanted to work for Delta."

Perhaps the clincher was the response to "what will you do if Delta does not hire you?" I answered, "well, I'm not going to let my wife wear that Fly Delta Jets t-shirt to bed anymore."
