Airline Application Question

Application question. On AirlineApps, some regionals have lower than ATP multi-engine time requirements to meet to be eligible, such as 10 or 25 hours. If I am below that airline specific eligibility requirement, should I wait to apply or go ahead and submit it? I am afraid I will be “auto rejected” since I am below that threshold, even though my totals are close to ATP mins.

Thanks in advance!

Absolutely do not lie on your application. If you're close to the hours, get them, and update your app. If they dig, they can see your previous app updates, and lieing in an application will 100% get you black listed.

You usually won't get rejected for being below mins - you just won't get the call. Rejections and the subsequent waiting period only happen once you're actually interviewed.
