3000 hour Red Herring

Anyway, there's a few of us fast jet types with 3000+ hrs out there...
Confusing... Virgin appear to be inviting fast jet applicants; while simultaneously rejecting applications by stipulating a "full ATPL" as a requirement??

Any military pilot who has completed the final ATPL/CPL assessment (IRT) at one of the flying schools cannot possibly have a "full ATPL" at the time of application.

Only a CPL, unofficially known as a 'frozen ATPL', can be obtained. Therefore at around question 4 of the application where it says: 'Have you a full ATPL' and the answer is 'NO', your application will be instantaneously rejected with a desultory "computer says no" bzzzzzzt.

Nice!
