Question: does anyone have any credible info on how many hours Delta is wanting a guy to have in the last 12 months to get an interview?
My numbers:
- 23 yrs flying, all Air Force
- 3,100 hrs IP
- 4,000 hrs PIC
- 5,050 hrs Total
- 4,980 hrs Turbine
- 3,100 sorties (Turbine)
- 1,324 MEL sorties (mostly T-37s with about 2.5 yrs in C-130s)
- Never been a DO, FE or had any Safety stink on me (bummer)
- Currently a T-6 Texan IP (last 9 yrs straight) but have only got about 191 hrs in last 12 months (that's about average for me over those 9 yrs). Yes, I'm trying to ramp up hours but every day I fly "today" I lose 1 day's worth of flight time (if I flew that day) from 1 yr ago. So, is there a min number of hours Delta likes in the last 12 months and if so, what is it?
Bueller? Bueller?....
Publishing aps in about a week. I'm sick of counting beans from my AF flight records folder.
Thanks in advance!
Don't know what to tell you. I have recommeneded 4 guys, only 1 that got an interview was a flow through guy. The other guys are great pilots with a good resume. Even better they are great guys and would be great pilot for Delta. I have talked to Cheif Pilots and even a guy that does interviews. Nothing, these guys are just waiting.
SW did hire one. He wanted Delta as his first choice.
