UAL was my sixth airline. There is no comparison to any of the others. You'll feel welcomed and will be treated like an adult.
It is possible to wash out but very rare. One story was a new-hire who wouldn't stay off his cell phone in the sim even after being told several times. The screening process does a pretty good job of ensuring that new-hires are trainable and the training program is designed to give you the help you need to succeed.
Very much so.
Yes, AQP.
I think the hardest course, that a new-hire can get, is the 756 and that only because there are so many variants to learn; 757-200, 757-300, 767-300, and 767-400. Several regional-only pilots in my class took 756, though, and none had any trouble.
Just be professional. Study. Enjoy the experience.
Do people wash out?
Is it a positive environment to help each other out?
Is it an aqp program?
Are the 737 and bus hard to learn coming from a regional jet?
Any tips and advice to possible new hires?
