Personally, I’m an advocate of zero failures!!! But when the pool shrinks, the bottom is inevitable!

💯 disagree. Failures happen esp in primary training. I have one. I do agree with zero professional failures though.

So you're saying people are not allowed to make mistakes?
Examiners used to openly admit they were failing initial cfi applicants on the first ride.
Of course there should be a limit on the number of failures, and people should own their failure but I don't see how your private checkride failure 10 years ago should stop you from getting a job at the majors.

Anthrax is just doing what they do. Riling people up. Ignore them.

I know I'm not bottom of the barrel, far from it. Rando internet goobers don't hurt my feelings :P

I knew someone would gripe about my record, but that's part of putting it up as public knowledge. Gotta have thick skin 👍

More than likely a system glitch, ask your friend to keep pestering his/her fleet captain to find out why it is showing six failures.

FWIW…Those would still fall under the Part 91 “umbrella”

FWIW....

The folks that interviewed this past week and got the "good call" on Friday were told to expect a March '23 BI class date.....
