Pretty sure those are all automated. I just took a class at Colgan and I got it too. I've got friends who've worked at Eagle for over a year and still get emails from airlineapps telling them to update their Eagle addendums.

AirlineApps is messed up. I'm glad Comair doesn't use them anymore.

Has anyone that is whinning about this graduated from Western Michigan University? Doesn't sound like it to me. I really don't think Pinnacle would have agreed to this if they didn't like WMU's program. Each person who has commented on this thread had 250 hrs at some point. Everybody also flew through a storm or hail for the first time at some point or another. I find it very disturbing that so many of you are unwilling to help someone new to the industry. I graduated from Western, and one advantage I have over a lot of you, is that I was taught that flying an airplane involves tons of team work. Who knows, you give us a chance and we might be able to educate/help each other. It's also good to ask questions. Many of you act like you never had to ask a question and were born with the ability to fly a jet. We are all on the same team here people!

Yup. You're the only one that knows this...
I'm glad it took a $1,000 course at WMU to learn that.

Please, enlighten me. How were you taught, that I was not, to fly in that it involves team work? I would like to know how you think you have that advantage over every one else. Not that I disagree flying involves teamwork mind you.
