My understanding is they are asking for all failures. I know a guy that double busted his part 121 upgrade and was still hired at Delta. Being honest is the best policy.

I failed my MEI rating back in 1999 (passed the second ride). Is my answer yes, or are they only talking about part 121 failures??

Thanks.
Your answer on the application should be YES. The questions states "Any check ride failure?" They are looking for honesty in your answers.

MEI is an FAA check ride, so yes report it. The question doesn't specify 121.

I have met quite a few guys at Endeavor who have double busted the upgrade. One guy busted so many times trying to upgrade they made him take a 709 ride. He passed the ride and was awarded his 4th strip. That should be fun to explain during his SSP interview.

Default Legacy

Has anyone that is a Legacy get an e-email yet? If so can you post your hours and qualifications please?
My buddy just got an email and he only had the min hours I believe, but he was a previous Delta employee so well deserved.

Be honest. I busted a Part 135 ride 10-15 years prior. I reported it and not a single question was asked of it on the interview.

I don't know if that is necessary. I was interviewed in Feb of 2008. The last speeding ticket I got was in the summer of 2000. Unless you get pulled over a lot I would think it would be easy to remember somewhere close to when you got your last ticket.

In my teenage years I got tons of tickets. I even remember getting 2 speeding tickets in the same day when I was 17. I almost lost my license.

The interview people did ask about my driving history and I told them I got a lot of tickets as a new driver, but after nearly losing my license and having to pay all the fines, I slowed down. Further, I only had one in the past 8 years and nothing in 12 years prior to that.

Just be honest. I truly don't think if you forgot a single ticket 10 years ago it would be looked upon as dishonestly.....unless you were doing 50mph over the limit, citied for reckless driving, etc. If you got something like that you'd surely remember. I know some will say order driving histories from several states, etc. Though I can't fault them....I really don't think it's necessary.
