I don't see anything about a requirement for 3000 total fixed wing or anywhere near that amount to legally fly a passenger carrying jet.
Yes sir... Because you have very little fixed wing time. Your helicopter time does not prepare you to fly a passenger jet. I'm sorry you find that offensive. Being qualified for a job and qualified for a rating are two separate issues.
Please don't let me stop you from applying.
