In the end he IS a mighty airbus FO.
Remember mooney, sim check-airman, line-check airman, soon to be APD is worthless since your plane is small. It's all about the seats evidently. I guess he'd flip a lid if you were actually a 777 FO at purple. The fun part is he thinks he knows, but he goes with the gut (I guess first class meals make it bigger).
How was Germany?
Sim checkairmen? I checked a sim, it looked good to me. Line check airmen? I checked the lines for June, and they look great! APD, A Puddlejumper Delta pilot? In a former life, back when I was a 1/3 of a pilot I am now. If he was a 777 FO with the average B777 having 300 seats, he'd be twice a better pilot than I am. But as it stands, I'm 3 times better. You just have to look at that chart and understand the linear relationship.
