A training glitch is an extra sim or two, not multiple repeats, rolled over to the next class to start over, being sent back to fixed based trainers because you can’t handle full flight sims, or 4-5 times the normal time required for IOE. The concept of just train until they catch on is completely foreign to me, but if that is what you have to work with, I guess you’re stuck with it. I guess I’m just old and expect people to show up ready to dance. My experience has been that knowing that I had to step up my game or get fired produced results. Studying 727 systems 10 hours a day, 7 days a week, for 3 straight weeks wasn’t fun, but I knew the plane and was ready for my oral exam. It just seems that now the training (regional and major) is a 4-5 day on, 2-3 day off, finish when you can type of deal. I don’t think that is a good thing.
