So we got yet another transient Director of Something or Other coming through the revolving door of mid level managers?

Making changes so they can have a "TMAAT when you changed something for the better at your last company" as they move through their latest stepping stone and on to a Real Airline?

Ok overall this is very good but I’m going to correct him on one thing. The Oral is difficult. It’s not just know what the buttons do and “maybe” a few in depth questions, that’s total BS. It’s DEFINITELY every button on the overhead panel and DEFINITELY in depth questions on every one (one if you know your stuff multiple if you struggle). So go into that oral knowing every button damn well or you will fail. Phases of flight/general airbus logic and everything that goes with that too. The moral of the story is don’t half ass the oral be prepared. I had no problem with training and agree that it wasn’t that bad but that oral is rough. Hope this helps, don’t fail and get on that senority list.

Don’t waste your time, you will fail, quit now.
Do your part, show up prepared and you’ll be fine.

100% correct. Just read AOM 1 and you'll be fine. Did I say read AOM 1! The lack of training could be a real NTSB finding if and when we have a major issue. A lot of folks that think they can just get the gouge end up in a bad spot when the oral is done. IMHO the oral should be after the sim training, we'd have fewer issues.

Come on, he's fine. Yes he's a little high strung, but he really does love to teach. Obviously YMMV.
