That's the one thing I like about the training at NK, it is junk but weak pilots don't make it through so we have a good mix of capable people on the line.
Ok so I had to chime in here. There is not a single Regional airline that you will go to that will not have guys struggling there first couple of sims. Its simple these are or at least should be guys with zero jet experience. Spirit on the other hand should be guys that have jet time that should be qualified enough to make it through a training event.
Furthermore, I would like to say GoJet only gets 3 sims when you upgrade. There are and will always be people that pass and fail when going to Captain and in case you didn't know when doing initial at Spirit.
Do not try to look down upon individuals at GoJet because you believe inexperience at a regional is at only one regional because your wrong.
Also I understand there is bad blood between GoJet and TSA, but to act like people that came here 5-10 years later should be blamed, I do not agree. There are other regional airlines have taken concessions not just GoJet.
On a side note guys I am really happy to see yal sticking it out until you can get a contract. I was hoping to join your team in the future. Good luck and get what you deserve.
