My opinion is yes with an explanation. It probably won't come up on the interview but if it does and you're honest, positive, and learned something, it'll probably actually help. Good luck!

First thing that comes to mind is what type of court. General Special or Summary. If I remember my justice course correctly, an Officer can't have a summary but the other two carry a Federal Court felony conviction. If he was enlisted and received a summary, it's a misdemeanor.

I would think his only hope is to be honest and be able to demonstrate good integrity and work ethic since. However, I also think it'll be an uphill battle, too many folks without that type of stain right now.

When I was going through the hiring process, I marked yes to this question because I failed a navigation checkride during UPT. I explained what I failed, why I failed it, and that I've never failed a checkride since. It didn't come up in the interview and I was hired.

So is an internship at pre-merger Northwest considered Delta or not? I'm wracking my brain here trying to figure this one out. What would you guys suggest? I'm only asking because I selected Delta and then gave a detailed explanation in the box below it. Now I'm second-guessing myself. Thanks!

There was a candidate and friend of mine in a class not long after yours that went to have his blood drawn at said institution of higher medicine. They missed the vein or whatever they're after. Tried again. Again. Again. Again. Again. Other arm. Again. Again. Try stabbing him and then moving the needle untl you hit the vein. Uh oh, he passed out. Well there must be something wrong with him, tell Delta he's a no go.

That got corrected pretty quick with a call from his doctor, who was outraged. I'd have to get more specifics on the story but thats how it was explained to me.

Now that said, my experience was straight forward (a few months later) minus my high Delta fever of course.

Who knows, but when you did you internship, NWA was not DAL. So if it were me doing the app, I would put other airline, and then put NWA.

That is just being being factually honest, and I could be wrong.

Hey they did my EKG wrong too. They freaked out, told me to settle down when I started to tell them that their leads were in the wrong place. The Dr came in and told them the same thing. Kind of humorous to say the least, but not too funny when your dream job relies upon them doing theirs.

I'd suspect a majority of pilots mark yes to this. I didn't pass my initial ride on the EMB-120 as an FO, actually I had an incomplete because I did a go-around at 1500' because I got off the LOC while OEI, while stupidly trying to do two jobs at once, and at another point I got close to exceeding 250 below 10,000', I didn't break, just got close. Turns out the next LCA said that incompletes weren't allowed anymore so it had to change to a fail. But I don't even know if my record shows fail or anything as it wasn't a type ride. I explained it, done, no problems. I figured they had the record there in front of them.

Looking back two other people had "incompletes" with me including one that didn't bust any mins or procedures but her LCA just wanted to see her fly again, the second LCA scoffed and just had her takeoff and land VFR and was done. And another who put the gear down a dot below GS while OEI when OEI is on GS. Oh well. Hell, a Captain friend failed his ride because he failed to notice his engine failed while in an idle descent, he noticed when the power came up. They said you should've noticed 30 seconds earlier, but its okay here's your pink slip but you did so well I'm going to mark you down as pass and you can continue to aircraft training. ?!??????? idiots. Same place that did engine failures during your steep turns and compounded different emergencies on top of each other during a checkride.

Depends what he pled guilty to.
If it was a crime of "moral turpitude" then I would say no way.
