Think 1500 hours minimum just to get an interview...and her competition will have more flight time, often in a similar aircraft like a Kiowa Warrior.

There are a lot of retired guys like me who also fly part time on a contractor basis (I don't have the desire but I might if I lived on the Redneck Riviera) who can stack 4000/5000 hours of flying on their resume and don't care about medical or 401's.

My bet is that she is
