Why don't you put that last post in your application, maybe they don't know that FIs fly at low level too. They may also not realise that offshore guys shuttle at low level, you may actually be doing them a favour.
Or, you can live with it as it is. There are many jobs that I would love to have been able to do but couldn't, and sometimes it is hard to grin and bear it, but that is the way it is. When you become the decider in a flying operation then you will get to choose.
Just for clarification, 500 hours low flying as an FI or shuttling in poor weather is not quite the same as 500 hours military low flying.
