Some here have said that it is difficult to verify hours flown with a previous employer, not always the case, a 'phone call to the company/companies asking A). Was this person employed by you? B). Did he/she fly the following types as Capt/FO? C). Total hours claimed whilst in your employ are: P1/P2, are theses totals realistic? or you could do it the SIA way, write to previous and/or present employer and ask them to verify as above, even before they have offered you a job! No kidding.
