As an APD/Check Airman, I've never been told my personal pass or fail rate is too high. I keep detailed notes of all training events/orals/checkrides.

If I am questioned about my pass fail rate, I'll bust out my notes.

Exactly.

Filler.

it's been 20 years since my regional experience and the failure rate was high at my carrier. It wasn't until the FAA made changes in our POI/FSDO before a change in those numbers took place. The training at the legacies and regionals are different as day and night because they spend more money on their training departments.
