Quote: Airlines only purpose is to make money. Right now PSA HAS to fill pilot slots, or else they will not be able to staff aircraft which = lost contracts = lost $$$. A student that gets washed out of the program at the very end of his SIMs is a complete wast of time and money for PSA. This whole situation that you are describing sounds very fishy! However giving your "buddy" and you the benefit of the doubt he does have some options.

The training department at PSA does not tolerate discrimination based on age, sex, race, or religion. They really can't afford to be that picky. Your "buddy" if he really felt discriminate has options to appeal a Checkride failure to both PSA and the FAA. If "he" not "you" but "he" thinks "he" was unfairly tested.

I agree 100% with your statement, but its very very difficult to proof that in court, if that was discrimination on his case. no attorney would want to take that case, that just painful to deal with all that.

He does not want to deal with airlines at this time, I don't blame him. he is mad, no doubt about it.
At least he has two options now, the one you mention and the other one its just to let it go and move on with it.
