C-21 then C-5 guy who separated Jul 2010. I submitted my application via airline apps with absolutely no known affiliates at Delta. Everyone I know flies for SWA. I got an email in Jun 2010 and was in an interview on terminal leave. It can be done!!

How is "fitting in" and "targeted selection" the same? Not every 28-35 year old Regional Line Check Airman with 1250-2500 TPIC and an aeronautically oriented masters degree has the same personality. The math no longer adds up in the airline's favor for pilots with 12 letters of recommendation claiming their buddy from their Crashpad is a "good guy".

That's pretty much what I was getting at. The code really isn't that hard to crack, yet many just stare right through it like those stupid fake 3-D drawings they claim work but never really do. I just don't like anyone thinking that Delta is the walk on JV squad... |
