Thanks for the inspiration cruz. I won't blame the school or instructor. I blame myself not being prepared for what should have been the easiest checkride of my career.

I wasn't making accusations that you had other "skeletons" in your closet. Maybe you need some help with your interview skills, I got turned down by a few airlines before finally getting hired, because I sucked at interviews. I also had a few failures, but was able to explain them and put a positive spin on them, but if your getting interviews then I honestly don't believe your check ride failures are the reason your not getting the job. Good luck

Oops, I was actually trying to reply to the OP. Haven't quite mastered the smart phone apparently. Sorry about the confusion.

Clarence,

Would you mind sharing what the issues were on your multi bust? I'm curious because I have mine coming up. Thanks.

^^^clarence, you just keep flying man. I have my multi checkride coming up. For that matter (check rides) I have 6 checkride coming up in the next four months haha. The multi add on I hear isn't a "worrier" if your prepared but the CFI can be is what I heard.. Hope your doing well.
