I faild my recurent ground school test and was given a retest which I passed. I have been with the company for two years, no other problems. Does anyone know how this could effect other flying job offers. I understand PRIA and how it works any other pilot in this position?
 
I think that consulting your union, or checking your TA could give you a lot more insight then some pilots on the FI board.
 
At worst your detailed record from the company will say something to this effect:

"2006 Recurrent ground - additional training - Passed or satisfactory"

Durring my second recurrent at ALG in the summer of 2001 I skipped an electrical system question but did not leave a space blank on the answer page and forgot about the skipped question when I finished - just one of my many stupid life mistakes. As a result my last 6 or 7 answers were wrong and i got a 76 or 78 (needed an 80 to pass). The ground instructor kept me after for 20 minutes reviewed the elecrtrical system then let me go. When I went to MDA and Republic I got my records from both the FAA and Allegheny and neither had anything on it about it. When I requested my records from ALG personally it they had one line to the effect of what I said at the top of the page but like I said the FAA/company PRIA had nothing about that on it.
 
Not hard

Recurrent is not hard, if you stay in the books between recurrent events. But based upon my experience in giving initial and recurrent PC's, where the guy taking the recurrent PC should be head and shoulders above the recurrent PC guy, it is not always the case. You can sure tell the difference between those who study and those who don't.
