Ive yet to fly with any one over ten but ive flown with multiple new fo's, too many to be a coincidence or misunderstanding, who are under the impression that theyre required to answer phone calls and accept junior mans on days off. One told me Paula came in to explain scheduling during indoc and said theyre required to answer/accept.

Now THAT I believe. I hope whoever was teaching indoc set the record straight to that class.

Somehow I dont have any JM's. Those 5 leg day 4's that start before 0600 must be doing the trick

We will be short staffed as long as they keep washing out new hires in training. I wonder how much this costs the company when less than half a new hire class can get through training.

Id rather they wash out and us be perpetually understaffed than squeeze someone through that probably isn't capable of the job. Our training department isnt without its faults but I like that our standards are high. Just one mans opinion though.

This ^^^^


After doing IOE for 7 years I was glad the standards are there. There were more than a few who made it to IOE and needed a ton of help. Some made it, some didn't. And, that being said, the majority that make it through did a fine job on the line.

I’ve had the pleasure of flying with a few newbies. I have had no issues with any of them except one or two being a bit nervous.
I’d rather the training dept send out Pilots who are proficient and LCAs sign off those who are ready.

The only way QOL ever improves here is if this TA passes. The company will have their feet held to the fire if we get premium pay AND a day off with pay. Thats unsuatainable for the company. Without this ta.. We will keep getting our 7 days off a month.
