PIC Requirement?
I have a friend that has a lot of heavy SIC international experience but no PIC. He says he doesn’t meet mins for you guys. Is that true? Have they hired anyone without the PIC time if they’ve got lots of international heavy jet time?

And your background is a perfect example of how maddening our hiring process is. We would be lucky to have someone of your quals and experience. For now, they aren’t changing the 1000 tpic though.

Guys probably feel it’s maddening because it forces you to choose between going to a legacy with no PIC or hanging out at a regional, ACMI, foreign carrier, etc until you have the 1,000PIC to apply at UPS. While I think it’s a great job, I would never advise someone to pass on a legacy in order to build the 1,000 PIC to be eligible to apply here. Even at our current hiring pace, your odds of getting called for an interview here are mediocre at best. This is a great landing spot for someone who has broad experience in aviation in left and right seats. It’s not necessarily a realistic landing spot for a young guy who is racing to get a great job before the music stops on this hiring wave.
