I had not thought about AI. That may work! Thank you!

How much weight do LOR's have at Delta? I have numerous LOR's, just not from any Delta pilots.

The first thing that came to my mind was letter of reprimand. Having numerous ones of those probably isn’t good. I know, I know, this isn’t helpful. Good luck!

Hello, I have decided to jump ship at my regional airline and as I am filling out the application I noticed that they want time in each make and model of aircraft. Would it be acceptable to put all the makes and models for single engine land piston in one line. I say this because I am so old that when I was flying these aircraft I used paper logbooks. So I would be unable to use "smart groups" to organize and total these times using an electronic logbook. I would have to manually enter the data anyway. I feel like I really want to get this application off to Delta instead of getting bogged down in the weeds with times that don't matter. I am not sure they really care about 150 vs. 152 dual given.

I broke down every single model... 150 vs 152, 172 vs 172RG. A320 vs A320NEO... I ended up with something like 25+ different types / model by the time I was done. This goes back to 30 years. I rather do it this way than get asked why I didn't separate them.

LORs from active delta pilots carry weight. Not sure if non-internal LORs really tip the scales much for the resume parsing algorithms.

I'd recommend listening to 21.Five's latest podcast, ep 208. How Should Pilots Compete After Spirit's Shutdown? Interesting perspectives and considerations for not only ex-Spirit pilots, but every other pilot trying to get hired at the majors.

The good news is, with a little introspection and humility, I'm sure you'll land on your feet in no time.

That post quoted a post about AI.

I think it's an AI generated critique troll post.

Nonetheless, it does portray the exact wrong attitude to bring to an interview.

Damn it. Am I talking to AI again?!
