Hello all. I’m a military flight instructor trying to figure out the pilot hiring requirements. I read all of the requirements on SWA page but am a little confused. Since I’m under 1500 total turbine fixed wing I know I’ll need a total of 2,500 but I’m trying to figure out if my military helicopter time will count towards the 2500 hour requirement. Also does SWA give any sort of “bonus” hour for military pilots. I’m currently at about 700 total fixed wing turbine hours with about 550 of it being PIC time. I’ll probably finish my military time with about 1200-1300 total fixed wing turbine with about 1,000 being PIC. With my 800ish rotary wing hours will this meet the SWA requirements?
