Great people, great instructors, great pilots. The three pilots that stand out in my mind are the Norwegian Hammer (can’t remember his name), Tom T (training dept), and Capt Woody. They really helped me become a decent 121 pilot through tough standards and great mentorship.
I’m kind of an airline geek. ASA is one of the great originals and I’m very proud to have been an Acey pilot. Good luck to everyone at XJT.
XJT(CRJ) Alum '12-'16, now at B6. I echoe all your sentiments exactly. My first four sims were with the Norwegian Hammer(PA), had me questioning my life choices at some point
One of the best training departments in my experience. Tailwinds and a fair landing to all.
