Hey guys, just wondering if I should be concerned. I interviewed last month (July) and was then later sent my commitment agreement which i signed and returned 2 weeks ago but I have not heard anything back since. I reached out a few times but still no response. Have any of you had issues communications wise after you signed before picking up the training? btw, I'm not scheduled to start (tentatively since I haven't heard anything) until next year after I retire. Thanks.

The communication is not great prior to your arrival. I had an email about a week before my start date with some info. Get in contact with Greg or Laima at SW to maybe confirm your date.

How many Seminoles do they have down there? Do they have enough MEIs to handle all the RTPers?

Everyone walked away. Apparently the nose gear collapsed on or after landing. Multiple witnesses confirmed that the gear was down prior to touchdown. More info will come out soon, I'm sure.

Skywarrior maintenance happened. Pretty standard.

Luckily no one was killed... this time.

I guess the rumors of shoddy maintenance are true! I have said it before, the School an airline partners with is a direct reflection of the airline itself. It's embarrassing and does not instill any confidence in going to SW. Any chance these issues can be fixed, or do you all think it's going to be FLY AT YOUR OWN RISK!

I just confirmed that PSA is looking into the maintenance at SW. I don't think this reflects poorly on the airline. **** happens.

As far as I understand it, RTP folks have the ability to chose their flight school and AAG isn't forcing folks to use Skywarrior... Choose wisely.
