Trans State
 
I hear that they just lowered their mins to 500/50. Can anyone confirm or deny?

yeah i can confirm that, im there right now, and those MINS ARE TOO HIGH. anyone with a commerical multi is what our flight manager told us, so if you dare go ahead and send in your stuff, but be ready. the dec class had about a 50% wash out rate.

their mins are as listed, but they are hiring well below the minimums as i doubt we'll ever see them actually "change" what's listed there. Good luck, but with 30% washout rates recently, you better be ready for what you could be getting into.

Most likely true!!!!! TSA can not seem to pass most of their new hire classes....What a smart decision to low standards and get folks that are going to have a tough time with their ground school.

And you are now in a much better place! Good thing for you they were jack*asses. I would say your timing was pretty good. :)

I am in the Dec class.
The 50% wash rate seems a bit high,
The ground is not too hard as it seems, but them people got to the oral and had a rough time, and most got that fixed, and then sims were/are pretty tough at times.
But relax and keeping your head up is about the best thing you can do.
Just stick with it.
I have yet to form an opinion on the training, never done it before till now

Yeah, because XJT is on really solid footing right now.:rolleyes:
(By the way, the sentence you're thinking of begins with the word "there.")

If you're getting on with just a commercial-multi, aren't you going to an FO for a long time while renting 172s to get that pic time??
