Yes the requirements are genuine. And regarding extra points for being a victime of a terrorist attack is simply stupid. This is what you get when a shirt makers decides to create and airline.
Wouldn't it be funny to write in your application that all airline pilots are victims of terrorism after Sept 11????
Now on a serious note it is pathetic and makes many of us not want to even apply for a position in this airline.
Maybe Hidalgo should concentrate in recruiting the most suitable candidates for a job as an airline pilot and maybe his planes would not be one day chopping approach lights and another day about to hang from a cliff.....
