Some issues are clearly money driven, others have more to do with the syllabus itself or less often, just individuals. 787 by virtue of newest fleet, upheaval from Houston, and senior crews in training is in my estimation probably lagging the other fleets in customer experience. Hopefully that improves as average PI experience level increases.

Systems knowledge is never likely to come back up to what you or I feel should be baseline. Footprints are not increasing, so there is often precious little time to cover required AQP items let alone delve more in depth. That said, TK training is YOURS. No matter how much I feel like going home at 0100, i’ll gladly give you one more V1 cut. Or a V2 cut halfway through the LAS departure. Or dual engine failure off 04L. Take advantage of your access to the building. Not like anything else to do in the local area at the moment. But don’t let substandard training become the norm, critique good and bad on your flight home!

excellent post. I want to highlight what you said about it YOUR training. I can’t even count how many times I have finished early and the crew wants to catch the van, go back to the hotel, catch a flight.....I have stayed until 330am helping students who wanted to learn.
