Sorry to hear this, TAZ. I think "the system" just got it wrong in your case. I'd have hired you based on these quals and recommendations alone, without an interview or sim. We all know there are some shmucks who have successfully lied themselves past personality tests and interview panels and I appreciate your attempt to play it straight. You're probably the guy we all want flying our families around...and I say that with no less certainty than I might for someone who slipped through the process "unmolested".
I know a few successful candidates at different airlines who would cause me to deplane if I saw them in the cockpit...sometimes the systems just screw up.
If you happen to actually be nuts, at least your wife is too. Good luck with whatever next comes your way.
