av8rmike - Your points are pretty good. In fact, you're pretty much owning the board right now. Those complaining about the training dept sound like they're grinding axes. If someone doesn't like how training here at FDX is done, then I'd recommend becoming a FLEX/LCA or scheduling a meeting with the head of training to talk about it (let me know how that goes, though).

In my personal experience on the -27 and the Bus, the program has been pretty good. I also think I was pretty much super awesome in my previous life and I've never been invited to instruct! What gives????
