One of my friends has an accident on his record. This was about 13-14 years ago when he was a CFI. He's currently flying overseas as a wide body captain. He thinks he missed out on job/interview opportunities when he tried prior to 2010. Different context today obviously.
He wants to know if an accident like his would automatically disqualify him for an interview at DAL.
Thanks in advance.
Specifics matter, but I have a friend with a recent accident on his record where he (unjustly) was assigned 100% of the blame. He was hired in '15 and is now an SLI. So yes, you can get an interview, be hired, and be successful with an accident on your record.
