1000 Turbine ttl time, not pic. The requirements are for the military folks. If you are a civilian, expect to get called with at least 4000 hrs ttl, with at least 600 turbine PIC. There are others hired with less but those are for other programs.

Delta Pays their new hire pilots 2750 per month in training. It is payed out ever two weeks. Health care and other deductions are taken out of that money. If you live over 75 miles away from ATL you get a hotel for the two weeks of indoc. In not you do not. During training you are responsible for your lodging. The flip is that every time that you have training in the future you will have a hotel, even ATL based pilots. Flight bennies and health care from Day 1 and anytime you have a break in training more than 48 hrs you are given positive space home to see your family.

Unless you are a female. A buddy in the trng. dept. recently had a new hire with 1,500 ttl and 0 pic. Said her time in the box was not pretty.

Not quite true. You do not get a hotel as an ATL based pilot for recurrent, only for an initial school. Non-ATL pilots always get a hotel, including recurrent.

Boys and girls...this is the chance of a lifetime. I strongly recommend that you kiss the family goodbye and forget about running home on the weekends and short breaks in training. Put first things first. That is, secure the job then see the family.

I'll second that! Of course its not like the old days of hazing on the 727!
But is only 6 weeks. Buck up and hammer down on the books, remember its probation.

737
 
The class that just came in yesterday has a bunch of ATL 88 and 73N slots in it. Also it is now official they have new hire 767 pilot. There are two that got ATL.
