After 6 airlines, they are all pretty much the same, go with the first one that hires you.

All corporate pilots should be rounded up and dealt with severely.

Default no cats...

If I may G, I think he's saying that corporate pilots are basically southwest pilots w/out kittens. Delta frowns upon guys who want to kill cats yet fail to find any. These people need to be dealt with immediately.

The SWA interview is hard, even for corporate guys.

Since United hasn't called you either, have you considered that a perceived aversion to "corporate pilots" might not be the issue. It might be you.

As it is, you've listed your age, current airplane, your former "bodybuilding" career. I'm betting the hiring folks at Delta have already done a search for those attributes--how many people do you think fly GVs and have "bodybuilding" on their apps?--and flushed it.
