I remember last hiring, DL was looking for a 3.0 GPA. No reasoned to think outside of the book.

21 Years of Age?? Are they expecting the ATP rules to be rewritten?

No, it has just been so long since they looked for pilots that there has not been any need to update the information yet.

Same could be said for the flight time requirement of a "minimum of 1,200 hours of documented flight time" that is posted on that page.

Wait a minute... we have to document our flight time, why didn't anyone tell me!?!??

On a serious note, hasn't Delta always had their minimum qualifications posted?

It's like a stupid tax, the stupider you are, the more you get taxed.

I didn't find this to be true. I thought Delta was one of the more promising, and honestly had the nicest group of recruiters I talked to. Now UPS on the other hand was the doom and gloom booth for me.

Me and my 2.9 gpa got through just fine.

The latest word is still early 2014 hiring.

I sure hope those of us remaining NWA poolies actually get a call this time if/when it starts up again
