What is 3407 Syndrome?

Normally they will not wash you for failing a single training/checking event, you have to fail three but that could vary with airline.

But ANY training or checking event normally counts as a strike...failed written tests, unsat scheduled sim training session, or failed PC/LOFT. I suspect this guy had repeated a sim session or two.
