Since I have not gotten called ...I'm starting to think my mistake 28 year ago is going to cost me any chance even though I have almost 10,000 hours operating safe since then.
I dont know the "true" answer to that, but I do know we have pilots on the seniority list with violations. I can give you a few good recommendations though:
1) Dont quit applying
2) Keep on updating, every 30 days (at least)
3) Keep your head up, dont worry about who is getting hired or who isn't. Your time will come.
4) Make sure all your eyes are dotted and tees crossed. Attention to detail is extremely necessary for a high time and experienced pilot like yourself.
5) Make sure you play the game and admit to your fault and what you have done to correct the issue. What did you learn from it?
6) LASTLY, and most importantly, make sure you network and try to meet or find a pilot that will check your status.
