Whoa looks like that got out of hand...

Sorry about that, I was just posting my "hired" status with respect to the original purpose of the thread and not in response to any previous discussions.

I included certain stats about myself for the benefit of others looking to move up, as during the application process I was concerned about things like lack of turbojet time, checkride failure, and speeding tickets...

So, just information for information's sake...

Default Hmmm

Mangretay,

Your listing of quals seems legit to me!

Don't see what the problem is...

Deuces dawg

6000 hours Part 121
Never failed a checkride
Three or Less driving tickets/violations
Applied over 5 years ago
Graduated magna cum laude GPA 3.9
1 internal letter of recommendation
Bachelors degree accomplished in 4 or less years, no breaks


Am I missing anything? Would you agree that this is what they are looking for? Has anyone gotten an interview with anything other than this? I know that military is a whole different animal and has an entirely different criteria. I am just curious who has been getting the invite. I have a lot of friends that got the fix it email but then have heard nothing. Guess they currently have 8000 applications right now too. Just curious of the 8000 how many actually meet this criteria?
I for one would like to see a few more speeding tickets; then we could consider updating our application at Delta Air Lines. Pretty sure they will call you anyway...Cheers H

Hey, not sure if this is the right thread for this, but a Cobra buddy of mine has been asking me if he has a chance at the majors/LCCs... Do any of them (maybe JB?) accept rotary time? I don't believe he has any more fixed wing time than flight school. Maybe he could be a cadet for Cathay???
Thanks

The military thread in the time building section is probably more appropriate. I think the question has been asked and answered several times there. Short answer...probably not without plussing up the fixed wing time (probably easiest through the regionals).

Agree with the above assessment. He needs ATP mins to even apply for the regionals. If he is still in, he needs to try and land a C-12 gig or something like that. If he is out, he is basically starting from scratch and should probably either consider doing something rotary related or getting his CFI and going that route.
