Just to manage expectations, someone with that kind of time in the military would have mostly PIC time in fighters.

Great point and very true

does military experience (non-pilot) help at all? I imagine there are a lot of other vets who apply apply all the time

I just got a CJO with less than 1,800TT out of which 326 is rotary time. I do have 800+ TPIC on turboprop and jet time. Military aviator, so that makes a difference as far as I know.

if the question is more accurately; will non-pilot military experience reduce the pilot PIC requirements for a job at United? The answer is; No. However Veteran status is considered.

Said another way, flight time will get your application into the review stack and get you the invitation to start the process.

1500… Work for a competitor or a wholly owned regional of a competitor and go to a meet and greet.

United has dropped the requirement of a certain score on the Hogan as a prerequisite to be invited to interview. Dropped total hours to 2350, no TPIC and no four year degree required.

CEO says he wants to hire 8000 pilots in next 5 years. The pilot pool is really drying up.

Ran into a 756 evaluator. Says he currently can’t give an ATP only a type rating - unlike Regional Evaluators. He recently talked to a FAA inspector he knows from TK. Inspector says United is applying to give initial ATP’s for new hires like Regionals do now.

So at some time in the future I expect we will be hiring 1500 CFI’s directly to mainline like Spirit is looking to do now.

Yeah ALPA says there’s no pilot shortage, right!

Do you have a military background? I was referring to pure civilian. Either way the mins can’t go much lower. There isn’t many eligible pilots left to hire.
