I like the ORH, one stop shopping and yet our simpletons can't understand simple!
My fellow UA pilots appear to be lazy and untrainable when it comes to change. For a large cross section of our group perhaps it is because they didn't bring a lot to the table when they were hired? Not being a flamer but to ignore that fact is to ignore the elephant in the room. They just don't understand how to train for something new. We had to change our checklist in the late 80's early 90's to be the same response for all fleets. Too many could not adapt to different fleet specific calls and responses.

As usual, you are missing the point. Why should we accept "min running" this training? The QRH changeover has the potential to be an improvement, but it was introduced with insufficient training, is poorly organized and has errors and omissions which could have been fixed if they had even one line pilot look at it before Phase 1 started. Phase 2 involves major changes to flows involving muscle memory, which have required demo of proficiency in the paper trainer or FBS before advancing on to the sim during transition training. Now that is no longer important?? It's interesting that the POI required TK to add 2 hours in the FBS to the 767 PT syllabus so every pilot in the fleet now demos proficiency in fuel panel configuration/cross feed because a few crews screwed it up, but has no problem with training by book and CBT for major changes in crew duties and flows.
You are way out of line with the "lazy and untrainable" slam. "Not being a flamer"?? GMAFB, you're being a flaming ahole! Your comments on this forum show you would be a great candidate for UCH management (if you're not already there), and I'll bet if there was an award for Domicile Douche Bag of the Year the poor F/Os that get stuck flying with you would make sure you got it.
