Is this a big deal? My TT is 2,200, commercial with 121 experience, no ATP.

As long as you're current and meet the required minimums, I would guess that you are good to go. PM me and I can refer you if you wish.

Being a USAF officer, who has at least been through Initial Flight Training (IFT), is probably a big leg up.

Haha UAV? She got to delta this early because she was a female. Sure, she might have networked her butt off but anyone that says being a female didn't give her the biggest push in getting hired then you are delusional

Big titties vs PIC will land you at Delta all day long!!
Random White Male Pilot: "Man, it's always chicks & minorities getting hired this sucks." Me: "Umm...yeah you do know that only about 4% of ATPs are women and all minorities make up like 9% of the rest of us?" RWMP: "But, but...whatever man they still get hired in front of me!" Me: "What have you done in the past few years to make yourself more competitive?" RWMP: "Drink beer, whine about others getting hired and play Xbox." Me: "Cool." :cool: |

So many folks focus on BS'ery like this instead of making themselves stand out & more competitive. Don't mean to pick on you but I can't count the number of times the following exchange has happened...

This despite the fact that there are tens of thousands of older folks with years of experience and thousands of hours of TPIC available, and not all of them "have not made themselves competitive". It's wrong and that's all there is to it. If you're the beneficiary of that sort of PC BS, don't kid yourself EVERYBODY knows how you got there and nobody gives you quite the benefit of doubt of competence they do for someone who earned it. Nothings going to change those facts. Enjoy. |
