Current mil guys getting called are about 2,000-2,500 TT with most of that being PIC. I have had several friends getting called in that range. Probably a little less for fighter guys.
Mil guys now are the children of sequestration so expect those times to dip lower, especially for fighter types.

I am using raw numbers although with the .3 per sortie conversion, many can get a bit of a bump. That conversion mostly helps the single seat guys since their hours are harder to come by and their sortie count to hours ratio is really high.

New to APC and this thread. Appreciate all the insight. Only place I'm trying to get onto is SWA, I meet all the requirements (about 6k TT, 1300 FWPIC) but no recency in FW. So I'm wondering if that's why I may not be getting called. Anyone know how much recency plays into the equation?? Thanks in advance. Dwtsn

Is anyone getting called w/o a four year degree? I'm fairly sure thats the only reason I'm not getting the call.

Total time looks a little low. Got that failure to explain away. No degree.

Figured the total time would be about on par, maybe not. I know the failure will have to be explained, was on a circle in corporate jet (sim). But, I feel like the degree is the largest hurdle I have, which is why I was asking if anyone has been called without one or know anyone in class without one.
