From what I've heard, be GLAD they are turning 90% of the candidates away. Multiple failed checkrides, failed 121 training, DUIs or other major red flags.
This is just speculation about RAH, but at Eagle/Envoy, it is similar. A large portion are being turned away and the pilots are crying foul. When you hear from the recruiters though about the caliber of people left, again, I am glad we are turning them away. A warm body filling a class looks good on paper but when they cannot hack it in a 121 environment all they have done is wasted time and resources (of which I don't care about, waste away) and not created the end goal- a line pilot.
Take a wild guess where these 90% go?
