Wow, I am shocked. Did Genital finally get the hint?
 
I would love to see how many current mainline pilots pass the initial psych evaluation.

I'd have to say that 100% of the current pilots would pass the psych eval...because 100% of them did.

They were giving it when I was hired in the early 70's, were giving it for some period prior to that and have given it for every wave of hiring since AFAIK.

Whether all that's really necessary is another question entirely.

I'd tend to side with your dad. When I see the organ grinder's monkey dance you guys have to go through these days, I just feel bad for you.

However, getting the job is life altering if you can endure the hurdles. If you're applying, best of luck.

All three legacies have a bunch of pilots to replace (if they intend to replace them all).
 
Mmmm someone needs to study the merger history of their own airline??

Actually, no...although the use of the word, "current", was sloppy language/context on my part.

I'm quite aware of that history: C&S, NE, WAL, PA, NW (and the carriers that made up NW)...maybe even more in the future. And, I know those merged pilots may or may not have been given psych evals when hired by their original airlines. That would have been outside DL's control.

However, my comment was to point out that when the branded entity, Delta, hires pilots under its corporate umbrella...they have been given the testing to which sstearns2 refers for as long as anyone can remember...and apparently will continue to be.

And while I think this testing is of debatable value, Delta happens to be the surviving carrier.
