I have (Xjet pilot myself on LOA) who passed and failed the CPP. I get tired of my fellow pilots blaming everyone. Yes some DB’s made it through the process but for many of us it was the only way into UA.

There are guidelines to the CPP and there not hard to follow. I had sick calls, got a doctors note. Stayed out of the CPO unless I was there to assist another pilot. Updated my app monthly, did union work and professional development to show I wasn’t satisfied with the status quo. Also to make myself more marketable to other companies.

All of the motivated pilots I know who didn’t make it through the CPP are at JB, DAL, UPS, FEDEX, SWA and Spirit.

Get busy living or get busy dying
