App question
Applying and app asks if you have disability. I have raring from VA but nothing that keeps me from class 1. Also same for protected vet. Is it recommended to answer yes or choose not to disclose? Thanks

I have a 60% VA rating also and can get the class 1. I spoke with somebody once and was told to only check it if one of the things they list applies. I also always check yes to the protected vet..... Figure it can't hurt

I've always considered the disability question to be separate from the protected vet question. I wouldn't check the disability box unless I required accommodation or a device of some sort, like hearing aids, regardless of VA rating.

Nor did I. The only place that had my hours was in my resume. I got a video interview on that basis. No word yet on that. I’m sorry to hear about the TBNT. Best of luck to you.

ETA: Figured I would put my stats here for reference. Good luck, everyone!
- B.S.
- ATP, CFI
- No 121, no military. All 91, 91k/135, 142 (sim instructor).
- Current Standards Captain on biz jets. Former Lead Pilot and Instructor positions (Part 135).
- Multiple jet types (all biz jets/props)
- 6000+ TT, 4900 PIC, 4400 AMEL, 3400 TPIC, 1700 Jet PIC
Kinda wondering if it was the assessment that did it. I've always passed those tests in the past, but maybe that was it. Last time Allegiant was hiring I applied and received the "We're interested; stay in touch" letter, so kinda surprised to get the TBNT. However, LOTS of more qualified folks out there.

The only part 135 guys I know here are former Great Lakes(they were regional FOs after Lakes) and Ameriflight pilots. If I were in your shoes, I'd definitely go to a meet and greet; attending one of those has been scoring people phone/video interviews.

Honestly, as an educated guess, it was more than likely a lack of 121 time and nothing to do with the assessment. I'm not saying they don't hire corporate guys, but they really like regional CAs and FOs. Regionals have excellent training programs. Allegiant's new hire training footprint doesn't really have much room for spending a ton of time on basic part 121-isms(although it has gotten MUCH better).

As far as the meet & greet, unfortunately, nothing I can get to easily and my vacation is all used/scheduled thru the rest of the year. Maybe next time around.
Thanks for your feedback!
