Interesting. Here at the regionals I'm still flying with military guys/gals that have quite the credentials. One for example a ret. Colonel with about 4k heavy time from the mil. He's been with us for almost a year and recency of experience is up. Another guy a KC-135 2,200 hrs - IP, Safety, etc. but neither has heard anything. Just wondering what spectrum it is that some are getting the invite so far out and yet available guys are hearing crickets.
Age, points scored on App and a myriad of other issues. DAL still has the pick of who they want. And your probably right, pool dries up a little so they reach out. I agree, the pool is full, perhaps just not stocked with the people DAL considers Tier 1
