This sums it ip perfectly! Yet, I feel like some airlines, mainly FedEx and Delta are shying away from AGR’s. I know they can’t openly discriminate for this reason, but who’s stopping them? They don’t give TBNT reasons nor do they have to. I hope United isn’t like this as I’m Nervously waiting for my post interview call this week. I’m AGR but I made sure to tell them I was ready to retire ASAP for the reasons listed above.
The pool of highly qualified applicants is beginning to get shallow and the airlines know they can’t afford to turn their noses up at military pilots, regardless of their current military status.
Good luck on the call!
