However, I don't expect an email for sometime. My TT in a jet is under 2000 but it is all PIC/IP. I'm sure there are loads of other dudes with more time than that. I'll just keep my fingers crossed and be ready when and if the email comes. Luckily I have 7 LOR's and all from Delta pilots. That might help but again there is a lot of luck involved.

Wow, that's amazing. Your point is noted also.... and agreed! That lack of initiative truly shows an entitled attitude in regards to going to Delta. Not being negative by saying that, but there is really no other way to interpret it. 4 of 66! That is really jaw dropping.... are they not interested in going maybe?

This idea of entitlement gets thrown around a lot, let us not forget that every single XJ pilot was told they would get a flow to NW without an interview. So yeah, actually if the XJ pilots were given what they were promised they were 'entitled' to a job. At this point people 1.) don't care and are tired of being lied to and drug through a bogus BK process TWO times in 7 years and 2.) don't know how the process works. Pass judgment all you like but you have no clue why someone would/wouldn't take the intuitive, entitlement is probably the lowest of reasons why someone has yet to fill out the airline app.

Thanks and I was ready to get out a few years ago but Delta wasn't hiring. I love flying fighters don't get me wrong but I see my future as an Airline pilot and my weekends spent on drill flying. It's better that way!!

The only problem with this line of reasoning is that NWA no longer exists. It sucks, sure, but there it is. I was told that I had the last job I would ever have and upgrade in 5/6 years, only to be furloughed 11 months later. If any one actually believes anything management says to them 100%, then they are either fools or clueless to the realities of this industry.
