Default Type Y/N? and B737 type at CPT

Was looking for feedback as to the folks at Crew Pilot Training/CPT and their 737 type course. It appears to be budget friendly but before I pull the trigger I wanted some audience feedback.

I know "SWA does not require it" but in light of my belief that SWA has no applicant shortage and many qualified dudes are out there, I feel this is a way to make my app stand out, especially in light of computer based screening systems.

I am otherwise qualified (hate to sound like I am boasting, but...) with

Good
4 year degree
Partial MBA completed

Director of Safety
Director of Training
Lead Check Airman (over other check airmen)
5800 TT. 2000 Turboprop PIC.

Two types, ATP
International experience
Fluent Spanish Speaker
Most of career at large Part 91 department with rigid structure and robust training program
Have a few SWA pilots and non-pilots (business office, marketing, etc) who will provide LOR's
Plan to work with Ms. R.K. for resume/app prep stuff
Volunteer Work
No accidents/incidents (like 99.9% of all the other applicants)

Negative
No "pure jet" time

No 121 time
Good/Yes 135 time (hauling cancelled checks in 1995)
Public high school graduate

Get the type ? (yes I can afford it, but if I can avoid spending $12k then obviously that is preferred)

Anyone used CPT Crew Pilot Training ?

Other advice ?


SWA #1 target airline !!!

Thank you
