"College Degree from an accredited college or university" is the posted answer. But, although it shouldn't matter, IMHO you could wind up with an interviewer for whom a 4 year degree is important. I have a bud who interviewed and didn't make it, and the only comment he had was that the guy interviewing him spent some time talking about his degree. (guy was and is a great pilot, good guy to go out on the town with, and a military officer w/ no skeletons in the flying closet)
As to a uniform, I would say I do. My chief pilot might occasionally say that I don't. In the summer, barring the holiday ties, everyone looks the same. In the winter, might have a guy wearing the leather jacket, overcoat, raincoat, sweater with mixes amongst the crew....but, all on the "approved" uniform list.

As competitive as that job is/was, do you think that anybody would be able to get the interview without EVERY single qualification box checked?
Maybe if Fred himself was your sponsor.

Despite what you, me, or anybody else thinks of how useful a college degree is in basket weaving (or whatever), and whether or not it makes you a better pilot, let me ask you this;

Just had to tell that to a friend of mine here that wants to get on with UPS with no degree.

Love Boat costume? Yes[/QUOTE]
Would that be "Julie's" or "Captain Steubins's"?
The fact that I remember their names scares me. I'm worried about myself now.
For me, it's a silk bathrobe and hotel slippers.
