For me:
7,000 Total
6,000 Jet
4,000 Jet PIC
About 70-75 countries flown to/from, so lots of international and crossings.
And I prepared like a madman for the interview once invited.
Good luck!

I might be taking my family on a trip after I retire from the AF and I'm considering getting Global Entry for all of us (4 total). I have the AMEX Platinum so 2 of us will be reimbursed.
Do you guys that are pilots in the civ world use this also when you are flying on the job internationally or is there another way you process customs and immigration that makes it meaningless?
What I am really asking, is Global Entry useful as a FedEx (or any other airline) pilot?

Late 2016, I know a USAF heavy guy hired with 2500 total, 1700 PIC. Know a few since then with interviews below 3000 USAF heavy hours. Haven’t heard of a single mil heavy guy getting called below 2000 total though.
