In the past 3 months our Union Reps have commented several times to me in and outside of class how great things have become in the training department (Call your reps). It is a reality in our industry that some people will not make it through training. It is a reality that some people will not do well in recurrent. Nobody gets singled out personally by anyone, that's what standards are for. As for other realities. We have a dwindling, aging fleet of dash-8s that nobody wants to fly right now. That makes it hard to attract enough candidates to counteract the "Normal" wash-out rate. This forum like most review sites are full of the 10 people that feel they were wronged somehow. They take full advantage of anonymity to wrongfully accuse those who fought daily to get these guys through. So please, if you have any issues we have a open-door policy. Call us. Come down and take a sim ride. Sit through some of our classes. But please do not use this site to make yourself feel better at somebody else's expense. Its not fair to those who are actively working hard to get through this program, or the 100s of guys that get the job done everyday out on the line. They deserve the respect.

Enough of that! See the rest of you at recurrent!

Respectfully,
BS<--- Those are initials lol
