Hello,

Could I get some feedback for a friend. He is currently flying for a charter operation and only gets about 350 hours a year. Is this going to kill his chances of making it past the computer software that the big 3 major airlines are using to filter apps?

I have heard that 500 hours per year might be the minimum some of the majors are using to filter down the apps. Amongst many other filter....

If anyone out there has been hired at Delta, United or American having less then 500 in a year could you please let me know. He has plenty of total time and turbine PIC as well as international experience. Nothing else on his application would be a red flag as far as I can tell. He is also non military.

If he needs to go somewhere else to get his yearly hours up he will. We'd just like to get some feedback before he makes a jump in case he doesn't need too.

Thanks!
