IQTR class pass rate

[ClearanceClarence]

RTF instructors are also used to having pass/pass classes so I wonder if that plays a role in it. Like they don't feel the need to grade as strictly as the Tower or Enroute instructors.

But also RTF is super easy

I assume this path is similar to tower and enroute though where it’s FAA evaluators doing the grading and not the contract instructors. Also the normal RTF class consists of current tower certified controllers who already have experience. I assume these classes are mostly off the street kids with little to no aviation experience at all. Still unusual that every single person has passed the class so far

It took a year before someone failed the TETRA course.

Is it just pass/pass since it’s new? No one has failed yet which seems weird.

It is not pass/pass. The difficulty of RTF evals (especially after doing TSEW) basically makes it impressive if you can find a way to fail.

I thought one of those guys slated for N90 failed one of the early classes and discovered the loophole that you can avoid N90 and go to PBI instead by failing. I'd try to find a reference on here but it appears the search function has been nerfed.

IQTR will be another failed attempt to hurry people through. Now someone with maybe no experience will start on radar and not know the basics that FD/CD teaches.
Set up for failure. $15K to go fail at some place get placed in low level well staffed facility and then move right passed everyone and to a big house.
The $15K bonuses should be given to people who have been trying to leave places for more than three year and have more than 8 years CPC at that place.
