I'm developing a hypothesis that, since the revelations of Colgan 3407, the regionals are loath to continue with any trainee that shows anything but astronaut-like ability during training. The last thing they want to do is explain why they continued with a trainee who showed anything less that perfection during training. We both had outstanding academic, training and safety records up to now.

My hypothesis could be wrong though.
