Damn boy you just don't get it. I don't care what you believe. I feel sorry for you....I really do. I can't imagine what it is like to be stuck at Piedmont, since you couldn't land a jet job. With a lot of luck, maybe you can turn your props in for jets someday.

Interesting you would mention "interviews." During the interview they asked about Piedmont and this is what they asked. " Did you resign during training, and if you did, we understand? All I had to do was nod my head yes. Their response was "enough said." Hey, it's no secret the other regionals know about Piedmont's infamous training dept. Have a nice day.

You need to work on your trolling skills, you're not very good at it.

I had to chime in on this deal....Let me tell you all that PDT is a regional airline!! The fact is that our senior check airman (JP) will tell you how great of a LR-25/35 pilot he was, but his airmen certificate doesn't reflect a LR type of any kind. (MM), our fearless training "aviation lawyer", will cite the regs to you but has no inclination on what he is conveying to you. He will use his Gestapo like tactics to make you squirm and his Napoleonic ego over-rides his ass. (JK) will wear the same yellow stained golf shirt and walk down the training center hallway jealous of those 757/767 typed mainline pilots who share the same oxygen with his ugly ass. Make no mistake that EVERY regional has their drama, but this place is a REAL Peyton Place with a VERY cocky training department who try to make you feel inferior to their superior "piloting skills". (BS) is another piece of **** who tries to study your every move, as "his parents work for the CIA", so remember when you pass him in the hallway, remember to look him in the eye or he will analyze why you didn't!!

We had some real gems that went to PDT after washing out.
People don't go to PDT because they want to, they go because they have to.
