Jet, I do know its 7 months to separate/retire if you 7 day opt (or 3 day opt a 365). Is the staff tour a PCS? Obviously that would be another 2 years. These are weird times with all the voluntary seps, early retirement options, and RIFs. Recommend giving AFPC a call - as painful as that will surely be.

Dice, I started about a year out as well and hit the lottery thru networking and got to a chief pilot interview which got me an actual interview. Starting at UAL in Aprilish.
Your flight time for a major is fine if you can go that route....otherwise if you are hoping for the computer to select your app - try to increase your flight time, the other posts are what I have seen as well (4000tt 2000pic).
FWIW, my time

I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter, as long as you pass your checkride. Delta for one only requires a copy of your test results if you don't have your ATP certificate. I'm bringing a copy when I go for my interview just in case, but based on the email I got from Delta on what to bring, I shouldn't need it.
