vs.
2) 1200 total time F-18, B-1, C-130, C-5, SR-71, X-15, Space Shuttle--IP, Safety, etc....USAF
Who do you think they would pick? That's what I meant in my earlier post.

If the points for their UA App were close then I think they would chose whoever had the earlier availability date.
You are implying that there is likely a bias towards those who piloted mil aircraft, which may be true. But, keep in mind, the guy running pilot recruiting for UA is a vet, but was not a mil pilot!
