How to handle training record snafu?
I was recently offered a job and am heading to training in a few weeks. Got my training records back and it shows something incorrect. Several years ago I unsated an oral on a recurrent PC. We did not fly after the oral was unsated, yet my training records have an unsat next to the event "recurrent pc in the simulator". I contacted training and the union and they told me this is a package event and it only has one title. I reported what actually happened on my application prior to the job offer, how am I supposed to handle this now? It looks like I failed the sim but I only failed the oral. I reported the failure, do you think this will be an issue? I can't believe the records could show something that didn't actually happen.

AFAIK your training records department is correct in recording it this way. The entire event is jeopardy and failure of any part is a failure of the event. I doubt you will get them to change the way they record it, you need to simply explain what happened if your new job asks. Which I doubt, since you've already explained it during the application process.

So what's the best way to handle a situation like this on an application or in an interview? I busted an airline oral years ago, am I supposed to tell them it was just the oral or add in that it means failure of the whole event? I would think as airline people already they would know failure of the oral means failure of the entire event? I think its crazy that records would specify "in the simulator" when one didn't even get the chance to fly. I understand that's the title of the event but you'd think that would be changed if the sim was never used.
