Hopefully age 31 should be good enough for LGA 145 in two weeks.

Until he realizes how long he is going to be sitting bottom of reserve.... movement on the 145 is were it is at right now.

The pee test person waiting for you could possibly end a career. That's a refusal of a drug test. Just call, and if they give you grief, Jetbridge swap LOA 11-03, section A.2 will give you what you need.

Excellent point

You have to know about a pee test to refuse a pee test.

Youngest to get the 145 today?

In the future they will if LGA is where they're going to send folks. But I guess it's all up to what American wants.

Fair point.

Im hearing of a lot of wash outs in the 175. Interested in hearing the reasons why or if its even true....

Folks have been struggling with the various HSI modes "colors" for different approach types during IPT which if not caught will trickle down to sim. Part of it I think comes from not having a comprehensive understanding as to the legality regarding the various colors and why they are specifically used for certain approaches. If that becomes fuzzy then knowing which vertical mode one needs to be in during an approach becomes even more confusing. Trying for pure rote memorization on the above opens the door quite wide for error. Add in the auto throttles and why SPDe vs SPDt and the mess gets large. I was lucky and had fantastic instructors that did a good job breaking it down.

I have also heard there have been issues with hand flown SE ILSs.

Know the colors,vertical modes, auto throttle modes and the nuances as to why you would use the various modes and you will be in good shape.
