Age cut off.....?
Question for the masses here.
I've got a buddy trying to get on with Delta (and apps in elsewhere...but really wants Delta). Former Navy fighter guy who now flies contract work for the DoD. Current and qualified on 2 different aircraft with 150+ hours in the past year. Class 1. ATP. Etc...etc... etc... I've written him a rec and sent the email into Delta Hiring. Had the app in for about a year. Crickets so far...
I'm wondering if one thing that may be working against him is his age. He's in his early 50's.
Anybody know if Delta has a cutoff for age? Or if it is hurting him to the point where he's just wasting his time trying to get on with a major airline at this point.
Thanks for the info in advance.

Quick question for you folks,
I just received an email from Delta Selection Team asking me to go ahead and submit my college degrees for validation with the appropriate national evaluating authorities, since my degrees were obtained outside of the United States.
My entire college history has been listed for years (literally) on airlineapps, I haven’t heard anything about them up until now.
Has any of you received such an email before or have found yourself in a similar situation? Is this the famous “fix it” email that I’ve heard about?
Thanks in advance.
