Scroggs - your response is too harsh. Low houred guys DON'T have a lot of hours and DO attempt to distinguish themselves by previous academic achievements. It reflects a record of academic achievement.
I realise that you have a lot of hours and your hours speak for themselves on your CV, but even so you may be able to cast back to the dim and distant days when you were a young, aspiring pilot. Your response was derogatory. I'll put my tin hat on.
