A lot of people have had AQP cancel due to a shortage of qualified instructors which might be contributing to some of the dequal situations.

Is this being exaggerated or are they cracking down? And if so, why extra hard?
Can anyone who’s been there speak to this and say if it’s hard but fair? Or hard and “out to get you.”
Show up prepared, end of story.

It’s shocking to me that a “professional” would show up to AQP and fail. Performing the normal everyday job to standards should prepare you enough.

The problem, not just at MESA but at many other carriers too, is that the senior guys have been sitting at home for most of 2020, instead of working, so they may be professional, but not proficient.

But if one chooses not to be proficient then he also chooses not to be professional. Maybe I’m wrong

AQP is just a LOFT style checkride? Seems pretty straight forward ngl

You don’t have to build the airplane, but show up with more knowledge than you did on your initial oral and you’ll be fine
Seems straight forward. Maybe people think “it’s just Mesa..”?? Idk, but it’s still a checkride so treat it as such?
