I was starting the application process online, but the first questionnaire asks the following question:

"Do you have at least 1500 hours total fixed-wing time as PIC or SIC in multi-engine turbo-prop or jet A/C or combination thereof?"

Selecting no gives me the response that I don't meet their minimum requirements. I thought 1,000 TPIC was the minimum...? What I don't want to do is select yes (having more than 1500 hours total, but not TPIC time) and have it bite me in the ass for not being honest.

Does anyone have any insight?? I can't move forward with this application unless I answer yes.

Thanks.
Do you have 1500 hours of ME turbine time?

I believe the way it is written is you need 1500 multi engine turbine OR jet. So if you have 1500 in a F16 you are fine.

No, I have ~1200 turbine time, and another 450 piston time. On their min requirements section, it says 1,000 TPIC suggested, but the questionnaire indicates any less than 1,500 turbine time doesn't meet the requirements.

Read it again. It’s asking about PIC/SIC combined.

I can clarify. I have 1200 total turbine time, about 1100 of that is PIC. Wasn't sure if someone knew if the requirement is 1000 or 1500.

Thanks again.

At risk of my own sanity I present to you the following.

It appears there are two limits. The first being 1,500 multi engine turbine or Jet, that being either PIC or SIC.

You must ALSO have at least 1,000 hrs of PICT. (Although that may be preferred now)

You need more total time in either.

Any one know if the turbine total or PICT has to be weight greater than 12,500? Seen anybody get an interview with King air time?

From the website: "A minimum of 1000 hours total fixed-wing PIC time in a multi-engine turbo prop aircraft, jet aircraft or combination thereof in aircraft with GTOW 12,500 or greater is preferred."
The key phrase there being "or greater." If the time is in a KA-200 it should count, but a KA-90 wouldn't. At least, that's how I read it.

Default SIC time

Sounds like American says in their application process that Military folks can count dual time (UPT) time as SIC time. The FedEx website doesn’t specify. If I use my dual time as SIC time would I be wrong?
