Checkride failures are just such a bad way of judging pilots sometimes. I know guys who are great pilots who have failures and horrible pilots with none.
Also, doesn't help that I chose a regional that loves to fail people in training. I mean we have had 50% fail rates for upgrades in some classes and when I was hired 1/3 of the class failed out with probably over half given failures.

If given the chance for an interview or when talking to recruiters I will make no excuses or blame anyone. I am the one who took the checkrides. My response upon inquiry will only be about what I learned from the failures and how they have helped me to learn and progress as a pilot.

I should hit $75k this year (first 2 months of 2014 where still 2nd year pay)
I'd imagine a DAL or Yonited guy can probably make that first year

Job fair in 5 days. Keeping my fingers crossed. Man I would gladly take that first year pay to just join such a cool pilot group.

While you might only be able to hold Detoilet or FLL initially, you can expect to be able to hold just about anything within 2-3 months out of training.
May new hires are all over the system by this point...
