New hire training questions
Hello all,
I'm a 1600 hour CFI who has a class date at PSA for 1/15/24. Looking forward to the challenge. I'm sitting in limbo flying 3-4 times a week waiting for my class date. Is there anything I can do to best prepare myself for training? I know its well known to not study anything unless its given by the company, or study ahead. I'm IFR proficent and current, familar with Jepp plates, and some basic turbine theory. Any other suggestions until the company sends me material?
Any tips for training in PSA's program?
Best regards.

Yeah sorry to be offense but unless you're blind, there's no radon to make this new thread. It's a sh1tsh0w over there with a ton of questionable resigns and failures. Literally go anywhere else with a better training department (Mesa, endeavor, republic, ati, abx, Omni, jetblue) all are highly superior and don't have thier heads so far up thier ahss and are not anti-pilot culture like PSA (pig sh1t airlines) is.
I know AT LEAST 7 people with 1 or 2 LOE fails there and resigns and are at much better places now.

And for all those who said it got better, it didn't. They are full of crahp. This has been going on for over a decade, and will not stop anytime soon. I can pull up an APC thread from 2012 with people complaining of the same exact thing.

It's been covered ad naseum in plenty of threads.
What you don't see are the literal thousands of other pilots who've gone to every Legacy, Express Freight, or LCC with nary a scratch.
As I've said before, literally thousands of other pilots (I'm one of them). Show up and do it how they tell you and you'll be fine. Or carry a grudge and start a website. I'm sure that will go over well at future interviews.
