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.
That's about the same as me. Active duty Air Force (12 years) separating with 4K total time, 3100 PIC, IP in 3 jets. I'm blessed to have an interview with Southwest upcoming, but nothing heard from the UAL, DAL, AA at all. IMO, these companies need to clear out the backlog of apps and see who is interested NOW.
