Forum >> General DiscussionMilitary to Civilian QuestionI am a Army Aviator with 2500 hrs FW/RW, soon to retire. What is the standard of converting military flight hours to civilian flight hours. I was told to add .3 for every take off and landing. Is this true and accepted in the commercial world?
Re: Military to Civilian Questionhi.. not much i can reply on this for you i'm afraid, but rather than just leaving you hanging i'd drop you a line to say hi.... what do you plan on doing them if you are retiring, (instructor ? )
Re: Military to Civilian QuestionDr, When I was applying for airline jobs, each application provided a conversion of military time to what THAT airline wanted. I recommend you don't do any sort of mass conversion. I was in an interview group where one guy could not explain why his application had more hours than his military record -- he was shown the door. That .3 deal is not standard (is anything) across the "commercial world". I've heard of that as taxi time but, if your military flight log was for a 1.0, then you logged a 1.0, not a 1.3. My two pennies.
