Just a general note for everyone that wishes to apply at Wheels Up. This might only happen to me, but who knows.
I Applied couple weeks ago, 2,500 tt, more than 1,000 PIC 135 Turbine (SEL) and around 150 instruments with few (50ish) hours of Multi Time. They replied back saying they wanted at least 300 Turbine Multi or 500 Piston multi for an SIC position.

I had 250 ME and received the same response. It’s odd they don’t post these ME minimus in their job postings to save candidates who don’t meet the 300 ME the trouble of applying. Humm

I agree with you their minimums should be stated somewhere. But with everything in life “Waivers” still exist. So why shoot your self in the foot before you know if WUP/ARGUS/WYVERN will wavier minimal MEL in exchange for 3,000+ hrs total time. Anyone barely meeting ATP mins will not get any waivers. But a motivated PlaneSence/Air choice One/ Boutique air/ TradeWinds etc....FO that paid there time in a SEL-Turbine can get a wavier. So rules are not set in stone. It comes down to a total picture concept not just an over all one size fits all number.

They do not care what format it’s in. Do not loose one second of sleep over that issue. It’s been 3 years since I was sitting where you are but I don’t recall them actually looking at a log book unless you did not have an ATP. At the time I applied I held 2 ATP type ratings so it was assumed I met the company minimum ( aka ATP minimums) by default. They may ask you to bring them to indoc if you currently do not hold an ATP type rating.
*Disclaimer*
However keep in mind if you don’t already hold an ATP type rating a FAA examiner will examine the logbooks quite extensively as there is a laundry list of items that must be documented. I would pull out the old FAR/AIM “brick” and go threw each requirement and document when you met those minimums with a small post it note in your log book for easy verification.

I have a friend who has a skype interview soon for SIC. He has about 30 hours of twin time. I want to help, I believe he was sent some Jepps. Does anybody know the process?
