A guy that got fired from a previous regional for having too many training failures just got hired. 2 failures before getting to the airlines (Commercial and CFI). Then failed initial airline training on his first attempt, and then failed his first recurrent training. Then double busted upgrade and was terminated as a result. Now, instead of a ERJ, he will be flying an Airbus for Spirit. No college degree and 6 checkride failures. That's the current hiring requirements at Spirit.
