They aren't asking for perfect checkrides. However, they don't just hand out type certificates, you have to earn it. And if you think you can walk in there and ace the type ride because you've "been on this airplane for 5 years" it ain't happening. I don't care if you are Chuck fu(king Yeager. But you've got nerves of steel, so don't bother preparing. Just don't bitc4 when you fail

What do you do with the people that can't be trained to be proficient? I would like to have the list so I can plan my sick calls. There's already an unspoken list btw if you didn't already know.

If there are people who cant be brought up to a level of proficiency, the company needs to look at either their training program, or their hiring requirements. If a majority of people have no problem with the training except a small few, then there is a problem in one of these areas... Seems to be a pretty easy way to make train to proficiency work...

I can't think of any other place that has this 3 strikes BS. It should be train to proficiency just like at every other airline. I don't understand why AE has to make you put you job in jeopardy every 6 or 12 months. It's unacceptable and should be one thing we address in full sec. 6 negotiations come 2013
