Yeah, despite the partial availability of rooms with fridge/micro at the Four Points, that hotel is vastly superior to the Wyndham Garden that they used to put us up in for training. Maybe there were enough complaints about it?

What an awful place the Wyndham is. The only redeeming quality about it is the proximity to the uh...entertainment...located across the street.

PM's are greatly appreciated!

We didn't get any review questions or "foot stompers" for indoc.... we used the indoc take home test as a study guide. Had a different instructor that you guys have though.

Tuesday was outdoor yoga day at OMB??? Damn. Missed that piece of info while I was down there...

I want to give him a chance before i form an opinion but what they are saying about him in the AWAC thread isn't very encouraging

I've dealt with Eddie several times being that I was at AWAC prior to PDT. I've never had any issues with him. He is very much a company guy and tends to side with the company as opposed to looking at things through a pilots prospective. That being said, AWAC is a great group of pilots, however the company itself never has the pilots best interest in mind they only care about money, just look at what is happening now. So hopefully Piedmont the company will be much more pilot friendly and Eddie won't be looked at like such a villain...so far seems that way. Just my two cents. Take it for what it is worth.

I flew with him during my time at AWAC and he isn't bad. Typical company guy. Just do your job and you won't have any issues with him.

No carrier owned management by aag is employee friendly.

How many planes is PDT really getting? I know AA said 20... but if thats the case and they are retiring the whole dash fleet the whole 5 year flow is going to look a whole lot different when the pilot group is 500+ for 20 airframes.
