sflpilot, thank you for the nuggets you’ve given on this thread - you’ve provided great mentorship here. Sadly, much of it seems to have fallen on deaf ears, but I’ll be running - sprinting - away from this program: there is zero reason to lock into RPA (what is the upside/benefit to doing this?????) and there are plenty of more cost-effective options available for primary training than LIFT. I may yet apply to RPA when I reach ATP mins - I have plenty of work to do to get to that point which means that each of the regional airlines could/will be in a VERY different spot than today - but, in all honesty, I’ve lost some respect for RPA as a company as details of this program have emerged through “interviewee” accounts on this thread versus what had been loosely communicated previously by RPA (now recognized as nothing more than “creative” marketing & PR work, unfortunately).
To those who pursue LIFT, good luck...and I fear you’ll need it. PLEASE re-read sflpilot’s posts on this thread and think critically about it all!
