Like I said, anything more is just showing off The end result is the same if you get a 70% or 100%. If you feel like you need to ace the thing then go nuts, take your extra week. Just know that it means you are one week further down the list.

PS
I didn't put my score on my resume or anything because NO ONE CARES, just so long as the damn thing is done.

Hey jetjockF14,

First off Comair doesn't have a training chief pilot and they wouldn't let a new hire get anywhere near the training department (except as a student) until they had at least some experiance in the aircraft. Ask your buddy if he knows what the Comair people were smokin before they told him that.

Hey SimCheck Guy: As I said my friend was retired from DAL as a 757/767 Captain and is now in class at Comair. He wants to get back into the game and is not some Cessna 150 pilot with his first airline job. I don't make the news just report it. Our policy at my cargo outfit is that we won't look at active pilots or retired pilots from certain airlines. At least untill our Chief pilot retires in January 07.

Three years ago I and everybody else thought US Air was done. It just goes to show that whatever the "experts" are saying, you can bet on the opposite happening. You never know....

"Meets Minimum Standards"...I did my written in `66 and scored a 78. No one cared then, and they don`t care now. BTW, no one has ever looked at my logbooks, ever. I found that strange.
