They have pilots who haven't flown for 6 months and they have CRJ 200/900 pilots who have to go thru a full blown training event just to keep flying the same plane they are already flying. I suppose thats Deltas fault too?
That part is the feds. They are the ones telling the company how to train. With that said they are still wasting tons of money. Instead of sending 1 instructor to MSP for CRM and SEC training, where all the XJ 200 pilots are based, they send them to MEM get 25 hotel rooms for 4-6 days twice a month.
