The airbus V1 cut is the easiest in the industry but if you don’t have the procedural mindset that the regionals Instill; you will find yourself drowning. Teaching yourself allegiants manuals, call outs, and procedures Is overwhelming and we have the highest retrain rate we have ever had right now. If you pull it off it can be a great move, but if you fail your first 121 PC, enjoy being stuck here for your career. Think of it as a high risk, high reward decision.
It seems like Allegiant is starting to get into the "pathway" game with R-ATP and RTP new-hires. Might this new demographic re-shape your training program to be more forgiving like the Regionals?

And just curious: what makes an Airbus V1 cut any easier than a Boeing?

Thx
