Why is everyone comparing a hurricane in Houston (causes lots of damage) to snowstorms in denver (no damage, just delayed/cancelled flights)? It makes no sense. If anything, snow in Denver is more comparable to the thunderstorms in Houston that cancel flights. Wildfires in denver, which don't happen, would be more comparable to hurricanes in IAH. They may happen in the springs and the foothills but they don't happen in denver. Maybe tornadoes, but I can't even think of the last time a tornado caused damage at the denver airport. Houston has flooded every year for the past three years!

I was hoping that the training center might have been moved in an effort to clean the place out and improve the quality of the product that seems to be going down hill the last years. JMO

I can't believe this thread is still drawing posts. I figured one page tops.

Is there a problem with having multiple training sites? Different aircraft in different cities. Just thinking out loud. Obviously that ship has sailed but just a thought.

Cost.....They won't stick to the contract or pay for expensed crew meals. They won't spend a dime more than they have to on training. Hence the train by bulletin mentality.

Which is why I would have liked it out of both places and start new. The amount of bulletins that come out are hard to believe, is someone sitting around just getting paid to put these out? lol
