I'm sorry but that doesn't pass the smell test. This is directly from DeltaNet. Unless it's grossly outdated (highly doubtful) this is pretty set in stone.

So, I stand by my contention that each internal rec generates a review.

Additionally, and maybe this is where the confusion lies, a Delta pilot can only recommend the same candidate once in 12 months. Again, according to the same website on DeltaNet.
Not trying to beat a drum - I just want to make sure prospective applicants don't count on being able to get your app restored within 12 months.

When I was at Indoc almost a year ago, Capt O.C. Miller, the Managing Director of Flying Ops (and AK's boss) was asked this exact question. He was very specific in stating that they will only score an applicant's app once every 12 months - regardless of additional internal recs. He said that some apps may slip through the crack more often, but that Delta's policy is to wait 12 months before a rescore.

Additionally, Post 5515 in this thread back in November, mountainmojo confirmed the same policy is still in effect.

Believe it, or don't believe it, just don't count on getting your app scored again within 12 months. Maybe you'll get lucky, I hope you do. Just plan accordingly.

Good Luck!
