Dumb Pilot said:The little detail that they failed to tell you is that the "Bad Habits" that they are referring to is knowledge about how the airlines treat their employees, therefore it is easier for them to mold you into an obedient monkey that doesn't ask any questions and does what they say just to be able to put your A$$ in a 22 Million piece of equipment.
CrownandCoke said:you got this off the UND website, I'm sure. UND has a CRJ sim that many regionals have used and liked. ASA reduces their minimums for any UND student that has gone through the CRJ program.
As for the low time, who cares? I am not making decisions in the left seat, I don't have the experience for that.

Dumb Pilot said:You CAN make it into the line with low time, but we are not going to give it to you. You have to want it bad and work your a$$ off studying and learning about this deal, because it isn't only about operating the CRJ but rather operating the CRJ in the system of a major carrier to some of the busiest airports in North America.
We at PCL are training low time folks but I can guarantee that we are not giving positions away. the washout rate during the whole process, from Interview (About 80-85% washout)
To ground (About a third washout) sim (About half) to OE (round 20% washout) is very intense and fast paced.
Now having said that YOU CAN MAKE IT. And we will put our best efforts into training you to be a proficient F/O but at the end depends on you! and your will to succeed.

If you don't start making decisions while in the right seat how will you ever make a decison once you get to the left seat?CrownandCoke said:As for the low time, who cares? I am not making decisions in the left seat, I don't have the experience for that.
