Man I think if I had two 121 failures in a row and still wanted to do it I'd see what's in my file before telling the next one about the bloodbath that lies behind. Not saying lying by omission is ever ethical, but he already pretty much burned his 121 bridges and there's really no other way than by hoping it isn't there. If it is there, it's high time to find another gig.

Not trying to be rude, but I would imagine that the majority of the other pilots in your class made it through training. You did not. Twice. I think others on this forum have given you solid advice. If you have not identified your issues then do so. Correct them and go back. Don't get defensive about it. I don't know many pilots who haven't had their a$$3s handed to them once or twice in this profession, but washing out of training is an event. If I were an employer looking at you as a prospective candidate, I would ask myself: "If this guy is flying the airplane that crashes and kills 50 people, how is it going to look on the 6 O'clock news?" ...."PSA pilot with multiple training failures kills 50 people!" If PSA has invited you back, you're fortunate.

For the love of God, don't recommend that...
Pregnancies take longer than six weeks. In fact, that time is mostly going to be spent listening to all of her female friends squealing in excitement. Finish the training so you have a job with which to provide for your family. Heck, you might even be off reserve by the time the kid shows up!
3.) You are at training at a regional airline. Your wife calls and tells you that she's in the hospital with abdominal pain, she's pregnant. She's under a good deal of stress since you are away for 6 weeks. You elect to leave training in the middle on your own accord. Did you fail training?

Yes this thread has lowered the bar and undermines the little pride we have left in this regional world
I believe in redemption from failures and taking a course would help to show it can be fixed but after 2 failures and the responses shown I think attitude is the problem. Being low time and inexperienced with higher speed aircraft Is one thing....
You keep asking people's advice on PRIA and then not taking it or lashing out. SO why ask? I'm not sure what assurances you are looking for. Yes people will find out. From PRIA? Maybe, maybe not. Finding out is finding out no matter how you slice it.
Change the attitude, take a RJ course and finish at PSA I think they gave you a real get out of jail free card with their desperate offer to save another FO on property in this shortage. One failure and then redeeming the second as a low time guy May save your career down the road
Can't believe I even read this whole thread and responded but my plane is broken nothing to do.
"At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."

Biggest amount of bs I've ever heard. A job at a regional isn't as important as that.
