Not hired yet, but 14 years almost 1700 TT and interviews with AA, DAL, and SWA. I'd say his hours are competitive. I average about 100/year now.

DL 'average' military since 2014 is 3100 TT and 2200 TPIC. Average.
He's in the ballpark.

Let's try and keep facts separate from poorly formed opinions.

Are u a fighter guy or transport? I'm assuming with the low total fighter.

All I can say is on the ual side, avg is still about 8000 hours . Military transport is over 5000. Obviously fighters is much lower.

That's exactly what I stated, below the Delta publicized average. Recruiters at both, and BK at UAL said they were also looking for good progression. 2800 hours of heavy AF time is what you should get in your first 2 assignments. They know what a 20 year guy would have as a heavy guy on average and will question why it's low. Plenty of good explanations but it will raise questions.

I'm mentoring a guy with almost the exact SAME TT and TPIC. Hired.
We call guys with these resumes the 'rock stars' because of their entire resume. His in the ballpark. As a 20 yr USAF his resume should (?) show additional qualifications.

Getting 121 qual'd is a good mark on his resume. He'll be a better candidate, and new hire, because he's expanding his professional resume and experience before he lands at, hopefully, #1.

Mrjiggs - 1650 TPIC + 750 IP/EP(EP = TPIC if you signed for the jet) = 2400 TPIC

Or expired as in what's applicable to the operation to be conducted/age, etc...?

As an applicant for the majors, should I be going to my AME every 6 months for a medical, regardless of age?
Yes. More than 6
