So out of 5 upgrades from ERJ to CRJ without previous CRJ experience, 4 passed- a 20% failure rate.
These are pilots that have been flying the line for at least a couple years in the 121 environment. I hope that person was an outlier. I wonder what the overall rate is for this sub-group.

You can’t look at just one upgrade class.. ask a instructor to show you the email they just got about training failures. And the data year to date. Failures are down from last year. And failure rate is below 5%... I cannot remember the exact number but it was less then 5%.

Now that 5% failure rate- is that overall or the specific subgroup of ERJ FO to CRJ CA without previous CRJ time? I.e. the topic of this thread.

But of that 5% how many fail again. Thats super slim.... I’ve had a discussion with some training guys. It’s very apparent day 1 that they aren’t ready. For various reason. But the other 95% are over prepared, and sail through no issues.

I think most of us would consider even one failure a big deal regardless of re-training as moving on would be tougher.

I’ve tried asking around but don’t know any CRJ training folks, just ERJ. If you can get some gouge on this specific sub-group of ERJ-CRJ and share it, it would be valuable. Unless that 5% failure rate you mention is that sub-group. It’s not clear from your post.

Training events are the product of being a pilot. Get use to it.... work hard. Study harder. Every day. Not 2 weeks before upgrade...
