Pay never improved and I’m in the process of bailing now because of the ****show of our training department. I flew with a new captain recently that took 6 months to upgrade at FO min credit, and another CA upgrade that got an engine failure after a missed approach and then an engine fire on the other engine a couple hundred feet later. Basically illegal to do that and purposely trying to fail him.

You can guess what examiner did that. The training department is in shambles. People failing “AQP” or recurrent training should not be happening as often as it does. I’m outta here regardless of the pay increase specifically because of our training department.
