I know I'm opening up myself here but, could someone please explain what makes TK so much better (I could care less whose program we follow or where training is located, since it only happens once a yr.) Personally, I hope it ends up in Denver since thats where I'm from and would be nice to have a 2 months to spend there!! Please give specifics on whats better and leave out the cafeteria!! I have been through 4 different type ratings at LCAL and all have been fine!! I don't know what would make it great since I hate training!! It's like going to the library at College where it was quite and to much studying was going on!! Every course I've been through they are very prepared and made sure I was ready for my type ride!! I've never had any issues with any training courses. I work hard but, am not the best student! They always have me fully prepared! The only thing I've heard from some of the Uhires I've flown with is that it is much more intense (compressed amount time for course and 1 or 2 less sim periods) Other than that, it's usually about the food! I'm not going to bash the UAL training because I've never been through it I'm sure it was good.(But, it was still just training!) I hope the people responding to me will be people that have been through BOTH and can give specifics on what is different! Please no "mine is bigger than yours" stories!!
