Yea from what my buddy told me they said too many people were passing the test (whatever that means) and that they didn't feel they were getting an accurate gouge of the interviewees' knowledge so they were going to change it continously. I bet those same ones doing the interview used the gouge to get on with PSA.

When I interview/ hire someone, I could care less about raim, and all that other bull fecal matter - the only thing I care about is real world life knowledge, reading charts, jepps or nocs, IFR procedures, and can you fly the damn plane without killing yourself or the operator but this raim crap, when are circling mins published, what prevents compressor stalls, (your flying piston twins or high performance piston, etc in the fleet I look after)

I wouldn't expect you to know or care because I sure as hell don't. I don't care what's in your logbook to a certain point cause I know when i test fly ya, who you really are will come shining through. I think PSA is being hypocritical.
