And why would someone put up with that much hassle in the application process?

Hi!

It looks like a lot of guys aren't putting up with it:

From another board....

]...word around the DEN training center (called "TK" by UA peeps) is that there were only 600 apps after the first 3 days - they were expecting 3000+.

United is using the same system as Airtran, FWIW. But the Airtran version is much less complicated.

Yeah, pocket calculators and digital watches were in 007 movies when I started flying. They did not have computer logbook programs for the Apple IIe I talked my parents into shelling out $3,500 for in 1983.

For comparison, I bought a nice Piper Tri Pacer just after high school for $7,500. That would make that Apple II a $16,000 purchase in today's money. For a lot of the folks in their late 30's, or early 40's, computer logbooks just did not exist.
