You didn't say "white male civilian." You said:

Should have been more specific, sorry. For most of the civilian people asking, 4000 hours was the threshold.

Around this place, the way everyone quibbles about minutia, even being specific doesn't matter.

How do you know this or possibly know everyone's resume? Btw, there were white males (meaning multiple)who were also civilians, with less than 4K TT, hired in 2010. Not sure what it really means, however.

None that I knew of, but fair enough. If you know of specifics, I'll take your word for it.

I asked around as to why my friend didn't get an interview, and it was stated that they were looking for 4000 hours as a minimum. That was where I got that from.

It probably was a general rule minimum. In any case, these days, what civilians have fewer than 4k?

Right now, no one that is a captain probably. That won't be the case in a few years, though.

When I had 2800 hours flying for a charter company as a Captain, I was flying about 200-250 hours a year. It can take awhile to hit 4000 at that rate.
