get yer smackers ready to suck off the fire hose... make sure you know that stuff. The training department has an itchy trigger finger these days arnd the washout numbers are up there....

Where is the sim training done? Do most wash out in the sim?

they just had a class of 14 and apparently 3 washed out of systems

 

[crashmbern]

is it even worth it to pursue piedmont. if you wash out of training that stays with you and can hurt the possibility of other job opportunities.

Hey, crash, thanks for the PM. So far, it's three people in my pool. If you'd like to add yourself, visit this thread, or just PM me with date of interview, pool date and Flightinfo name.

Thanks,
ceo

CrashmBern:

What do you mean is it work it to pursue piedmont? You can't hit a homerun without swinging first, right? Your chance at Piedmont is the same as any other regional.... you fail training at let's say ExpressJet, that's on your record too... so I'm a little confused as to what you were talking about??

 

[crashmbern]

it just seems as though piedmont almost wants to fail people. i don't have much experience with 121 training, but 3 out of 14 people failing systems seems pretty high to me.

any word on when the next class may be.

 

[PA31Ho]

nope, all sorts of rumors flying around now... won't know for sure until it happens

3 out of 14 doesnt seem like a lot, and besides, this may have been the straw that broke the camels back. They might have been weak in other areas and systems just ended it for them.
