I am an FO at an American WO and have been here for a little under a year. I am 21 with a R-ATP until I’m 23. Not because of hours/flight time, but just because of age. I have roughly a year and some change before I’ll be 23, and I know that most legacies want 23 and Unrestricted ATP. I have a 4 year degree and no checkride/company failures.
My question is when is a good time to start putting my application out at Delta? I’m trying to be on top of the game if I were to get a call as an FO, and get an idea so I really appreciate it.
Today!
I believe we hired someone 21 yr old recently. Hiring 200 pilots a month it’s a lot and they will go through the apps quickly. Also, get your app verified before you publish it.
