There are no written guidelines concerning this, zilch. Just start applying when you are a few months out from reaching your mins. It's really that simple, it's not rocket science here.

Just what I heard. Would that stop me from going and trying anyhow...no way. Still would be worth going too. I wish I could but I'm working.

oops, misread the post. My bad, thought it was another one of those "when I should apply to the Regionals" post.

No I was referring to WIA next month. My apps are already in. Just didn’t want to waste my time if they won’t even talk to us if we are below 1,000 turbine time.

Delta has interviewed a few recently without a degree. If they were hired I have no idea. As for AA. There have been a few hires without one. I don't know them personally just going off a veterans fb group that's full of pilots I'm part of.

But them being veterans I guess doesn't really make us regular people per say

ok good. I'm a veteran (not a mil pilot), so I didn't know if they even cared about that or not as far as hiring goes

They care just a little bit, it's part of the whole person package. They know you'll show up on time with a clean shave and pressed shirt and won't whine too much. Like anything else, it matters what you did and how well you did it ( regular or elite, O or E, rank vs. time served).
