Hope that answers your question Trent, Feel free to call us up or shoot an email for any other questions

Wow you do know your stuff! Not that you don't Dave. Also I enjoyed CQ last week very laid back.

Is anyone else disgusted that PiedmontCLT has time to play around on message boards, but doesn't have time to fix/update the plethora of mistakes/old information in the power points, manuals, and other training materials? (if indeed they are affiliated with the training department). Try reading about the "law of effect" and "law of primacy," if anyone in sim world remembers what those are. . .

On a side note, there are a couple of true instructors, who I have the upmost respect for in the training department, and I do apologize, as the negative opinions I have about Piedmont Training are in no way directed at them.

Haven't heard anything other than upgrading n hiring after the first of the year, not so sure now since the 200's are all but off the table. Although I have heard from the training dpt's mouth that they are getting a lot of "requests for training records". Have u heard a rumor about a new bid?

To you new hires (first year f/o's, in training, or going to interview), this better be a WAKEUP CALL to all of you. Ask yourself, "why are so many f/o's jumping ship?" Please ask yourself that!
