just FYI...
I got phone screened today by ASA.. they liked what they saw on my resume except for the fact I had no Glass-Cockpit time. TOld me to fly some Glasscockpit stuff and send in my resume again.
They want to see that you've flown equipment with a tape measure Airspeed and Altimeter. He told me it was so you don't come in and fail your sim ride and screw yourself over for future interviews. They WANT you to pass the sim and get hired. They dont want to waste your time and call you to ATL just to fail the sim and put yourself into a bad place for your next job interview..
Just what I was told on the phone..

They did the phone screening with me and was more than willing to offer an interview. I have no glass time but my times are over ASA minimums so I agree with HercDriver.After you get above the mins reapply and Im sure they'll give you a shot.

I say go ahead and apply, it can't hurt anything, they were stiff on the multi when I applied (I had 43 and when I got hired they said I had to have 50 before the class date) but now they are getting more lenient, A friend of mine talked to the guy in charge of hiring and he said he would hire people from That certain flight school with only 25, maybe they will do the same for western mich.
