My point was not whether the request was right or wrong, I don't think it was right to attack the person who asked the question initially. The person who posed the question in the first place was granted his wish, how am I wrong exactly? There is no reason people need to be a jerk, simply because they can.

They look at job progression...probably saw your current position and were cleaning their application folder. I don't think it had to do with your qualifications.

I do not want to get into a philosophical discussion about this, but "CFI's that excel" and "pilots that will succeed in 121 ops" are not always the same group of people. From experience, as a student pilot, training classmate, and in a former time at another job, union rep.

GPA was the very first thing they verified in my panel interview. It certainly seemed like they were interested in that.

College GPA is actually a stronger predictor of 121 training success than previous experience (per the CP hiring dept.)

The problem with this thought process is that it assumes a GPA from a local podunk community college is the same as at a larger, tougher private college. A 3.2 at some places is worth more than a 3.9 at others. I wouldn't use GPA as a benchmark for someone passing 121 training.
