but all are free to believe what they want and interpret as they wish.
this training department at eagle has basically been taken over by the feds, the instructors and designated examiners like there cushy job and go out of there way to keep there jobs by busting pilots on there rides because that is what the faa poi wants.
we have had at least three examiners who have been demoted from examiners because they did not fail enough applicants, that is what the faa poi at eagle said and did.
so be on the ball in training, the feds ride half the rides with the applicants.
Sorry. All of this is either not true or a gross exaggeration. I have never had a Fed on any of my checking events. None of my friends have either and they are many.
We do have two problems in the training center and they go by the initials CW and MA. They are protected by their golf pal Allen Hill. Both CW and MA had a "coming to Jesus" meeting with the FAA back in November due to excessive FOQ failures including a lawsuit being brought on CW by an FO. Allen Hill attempted to intimidate that FO, btw which made the situation worse.
Other than that there is no "conspiracy" in the AETC. Yes, Eagle does have the highest standards of training in the Regional industry. They also provide the highest quality training and have some of the best instructors in my opinion. People who have been 121 pilots for 20+ years training you as opposed to "Chad the Captain" like at other Regionals.
