If this horse isn't dead, I think Hacker and those following have it right. List what you can remember if it's a mid-phase or category. In WIC, you bust a daily ride? So what. Who hasn't?! I'd lump that in with busting a daily ride in UPT. Surely it happens. Delta probably doesn't care. If it was a cert ride, that's probably something to fess up to. Be sure to keep a story about what you learned from that bust handy in case they ask. I told about a story where I busted a ride and what I learned. I spun the story in a comedic fashion that was self-deprecating and the panel had a chuckle about it for like 2 minutes straight. That was 2 less minutes I was being grilled.
