One thing I just noticed upon re-reading my rejection notice... It says feel free to re-apply for any open position. I intend to do so every week or so. Couldn't hurt i suppose. Maybe I can annoy them into hiring me. Also I may have secured in internal rec so hopefully that will give me a leg up.

When the airlines begin to hire a little bit more, do you think we could see a similar requirement for others, in anticipation of the Part-121 ATP rule? Everyone might start to make that the minimum so you are at least ATP-qualified prior to hire.

Part 135 XC is airport to airport (land at a different airport).
