Atlas Shrugged

Amen a paid for type with 250 tt does not equal a PIC Captain. As a side question Anyone ever heard of someone failing a type ride at simuflite etc.
Yes. My last sim partner had a stick buddy some time ago that was sent home without completing the training.
In this case I'm afraid age might have played a large factor in the less than satisfactory performance. I have heard that they will bend over backwards during training to ensure success.
