Washed Out Of PSA
Hello all,
I was just let go at PSA durning the sim process. I just couldn't keep up with the aircraft. (I didn't fail a checkride or anything) They said I could go take a jet transition course and return. If I return to pass all training, will this save my pria?

No they will send training records. Just use going back and passing as a positive what you learned experience.

Doubt it, pretty sure that it will go down as did not complet training. Will still have to explain it. Because your employment was terminated and you will have to be rehired. Might be different, but that's what has happened to others. Good luck and don't let this get you down. Get it done and get back on the horse!

I don't think it's a pria hit if you didn't go for an event. Sorry about that bad news, yo.

No, it's still PRIA reportable.
But if you're a low time piston pilot trying a jet for the first time, AND you can go back and complete training that will do a lot to mitigate the damage.
Strictly for purposes of spinning this situation at an interview, it would be best if you go back to PSA, vice another regional (I know they're all hiring). The fact that they took you back would indicate they deemed you worthy, but just inexperienced. Of course you have to weigh how long it will take to get another class date at PSA...I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for more than a month or two in today's environment.

I resigned and didn't take a checkride. I put personal reasons on my resignation letter.

Looking at your previous posts, is this your 2nd wash out from a regional?

There should still be a PRIA record requirement with any 121 employer. I would talk to PSA and see if you can learn exactly what details they'll report...I suspect your detailed training records from the sim are not too pretty.
