What's the breakdown of your hours? How much turbine PIC? That's the barometer the majors (including the 121 cargo carriers) are interested in. All pilots are not equal in the eyes of the majors, and thus your military background may allow you to bypass the regionals. A fighter guy with 1500 hrs, for instance, can apply straight to the big-leagues. A C-130 guy with that kinda time might be able to, as well.
