I've cancelled more than one (a BUNCH) of their training flights refusing to stop Maintenence work on an airplane for their "Crash an Dash" sessions. ONCE they took an airplane slated for Ua805 SFO-HKG and wouldn't return it in time to make the flight so the flight got cancelled. MID DAYSHIFT TRAINING CAME TO A screeching HALT PRETTY SOON AFTERWARDS. I always thought they should pilot train in one of their E4B's Or Buy their Own -200's It isn't like they can't afford it!!
Yeah but I kind of miss the in flight refueling module in the sim. That was some good old fashioned fun.
