AMF Training Captains

[EatSleepFly]

I have heard they are partial to the ERAU and other Ivy League CFI grads.

I don't think they are particularly partial to grads of one type of school or another.

I have heard the line guys don't take too kindly to the training captains.

Maybe in some cases, but I would say that's an exception, not a rule. And those few cases, it's probably more the attitude of the training captain than anything else, since line pilots don't have to deal much with the BUR-based offline training captains. They pretty much only train new-hires in the PA31's. All of the training in the turbine airplanes is done by line pilots who are also training captains.

Oh, have I said that's all 'hear say' yet??

I don't know about any "partiality". Had two instructors from a local flight school near Dallas who were both recently hired as trainers.

Hey Buff,

Start brushing up on your "there I was, loaded with bombs, somewhere over enemy lines" stories... I'm anxious to hear some BUFF stories when we fly together.

It took me a second to figure out who those two were (it's late and I've been working days)

And neither of those guys went to Riddle. One has a degree in philosophy and the other one has a degree in some biology pre-med crap.

Yea man, word, choice. I think that I know you!

For sure dude!

You know I actually had somebody identify me as, "Isn't he that guy that says word all the time?"

I'm bringing back Vanilla Ice, one horrible line at a time.
