There are certain people, as was alluded to above, that were likely to have issues during training, and they have. There are other people who just have a momentary lapse in judgement or skill and fail the ride. It’s a part 61 ride and requires 100% completion with no retrains. That’s not on the APD...

Now, we can talk about leadership and have a nice conversation about needed changes.

Sure. AQP ASAP!!!!!!. I personal have learned more when I was on an AQP program then showing up once a year having to do a check ride. Absolutely NO EXCUSE to not have this now!!! Invest in making pilots better everyday!!!!! With that said I’ve never failed a check ride in my career. Knock on wood.....
