Yeah. He had. I had as well. I ate up both of my extra sims and had a written test failure. I can't believe how they'd just throw away a pilot they just poured about $25K into and got him his "type"?? The good thing in his case is that he walks away with it with his type.
I'm developing a hypothesis that, since the revelations of Colgan 3407, the regionals are loath to continue with any trainee that shows anything but astronaut-like ability during training. The last thing they want to do is explain why they continued with a trainee who showed anything less that perfection during training. We both had outstanding academic, training and safety records up to now.
My hypothesis could be wrong though.

You and your training partner can walk away with your "type rating". But with no hours in type, it means jack squat.
I've bit my tongue for the last couple of days, but you and I are the same age and it's time to focus. I'm sorry you got yourself into such a pile of debt and are scrambling for options, but it is what it is (I normally despise that phrase). Time to cowboy up or come up with plan B. Stop blaming everybody/everything else and get going.
Lots of experience on these threads - just listen.

Oh my gosh! Thank you to everybody who cared enough to leave a message so far. Seriously. Through reflecting on what everyone has said, especially the importance of "owning" the wash, regardless of what really went down and "Arguing and bickering about who-kild-who." LoL! I have had an epiphany!
Nobody wants to be a guy like this,
Reporter - "Yeah, b-b-but we're not talking about averages here we're talking about human beings flying my grandmother to Buffalo, making $18,000 to $20,000 a year. So there are these people out there, living these lives, and it seems as if there in an untenable position."
Airline Guy - "Absolutely not. There are people in these communities who learn, ur-earning less money, and who wor-work more days, and do do it and do it responsibly."
A perfect example of a man who is unwilling to own even any iota of the problem. It doesn't matter what percentage of the problem he owns or not. But he is unwilling to own the problem at all. It made him look bad. Really bad. And thus, in order to not look like "that guy". I own it! Yes, I own my washout. Every last second of it! I was there. Nobody put me in this situation but me! At any interview from now on, I......own it!
