Is this true and why so anal?
Make sure you read the application correctly. The application says;
"Please complete an entire work history."
The next sentence says for those requiring a background check please complete the last 10 years. Don't mistake where the period is placed. These are two separate sentences.
The rumor I heard was that they want far enough back so that they can see where you did your flight training. A lot of regional pilot guys have been at the regionals for 10 years so if they just put the regional, it will not tell Delta enough about the applicant. I would guess as long as you listed your employment back to where you got your flight hours, they might consider that complete.
