No kidding. With our low time upgrade requirements and brand new R-ATP pilots with no prior jet time, things could get pretty dicey. I hear that we may be dropping the AQP program as well to free up sim time. I personally feel that all these things combined definitely raise the potential for an accident.

Anyone heard anything about AA flight benefits? Hopefully management remember that LAX is a commuter heavy base and negotiated this in the deal.

Why would they drop it and completely revert from a system that works and everyone else is trying to implement? And realistically how much shorter is non AQP? Not much. You should have been here when you had to do initial LOEs in BOTH seats, then we can talk about long but that's not the case anymore.

Keep in mind the FSDO would have to approve it, and that would involve the creation of a complete training program from scratch and then the FSDO would have to review it. We are talking months of work, at a time when HQ needs about 2 hours more per day to get done what they already have on their plate.

I swore I heard at the last place I worked that all airlines had to switch to AQP within a certain time frame per FAA Regs
