Thanks so much guys! Feels dang good to have that out of the way... I'll start OE sometime next week after my sim partner finishes his checkride on saturday.
Jason: Harvell was my APD/torture master.... was def quite the ride... 2.8 hours in the box. Thus far my class is 2 for 3... several guys got assigned a 6th sim session before their checkride... one guy went tonight with Van Ausdal..don't know how he did. I'm DTW based..see ya up there. Is there much snow left on the ground?

No snow - supposed to be 70 something here I think today but getting colder with a "chance" of some snow this weekend - or so says the majic weather man on the radio.
I think we ended up going 4 for 10 on initial passes with 2 bombing the recheck.

If you fail the initial ride you will be given a retraining session and if the instructor signs you off again then another checkride. If you bust the second one people are usually given the option of leaving the company or being retrained and checked as an FO again.

What happens when an FO busts his at initial training with a company???

Its pretty hard to "bust" out of initial training at a company. For the most part it is train to proficency so you have to mess up multiple times to fail out of the program. However from time to time at every company there are those that do not make it. I believe most places have a "3 strikes rule" meaning you have to be unsat in 3 different areas of training IE indoc/systems test, sim training, checkride, IOE. Most FO checkrides are train to proficency from what I know. I heard at most places it used to be one strike and your out meaning if you didnt pass your systems test, checkride, or IOE you were gone. Now you get more than one chance and to fail a checkride is pretty hard when its train to proficency. If you do wash out though you are asked to resign or they have no choice but termination. If you leave with a good attitude and have special circumstances i have heard of people returning after a year and successfully completing the program. It isnt impossible to get a job somewhere else but you have to be ready to talk about what happened. As long as you study hard, know the flows/callouts/profiles you shouldnt have much trouble getting through.

It's not that hard to bust out if you have 500 tt and most of your "experience" is riding shotgun in a BE1900 - that is unless your airline receives monetary payments from the academy that trained you but that's another discussion for another day.
FO rides are "Train to Proficiency" but there is usually a limit of 2 TTP items - ie you can't screw up every single manuever and expect them to TTP you for a 'pass'.
