I did my initial qual on that sim. It’s like a Commodore 64 with hydraulics installed.

Sad part is the St Louis sim makes the Hobby sim look like an all star. STL is so clapped out, giant pos.

I did some time in that sim, what an adventure that thing was. They have the aerodynamics of it all messed up. The engines act like they are wing mounted on the STL sim.

Our fearless leaders returned an already-installed, higher fidelity sim just a couple months before realizing they needed it back. Too late. Off to the thrift store to hunt for a leftover.

Actually, they did return a simulator but your story is a little off. Xjet didn’t own that sim, UA owned the sim. They wanted more $$ than it was worth and Xjet could rent time cheaper then the cost of acquiring the sim.

That’s why it disappeared but that doesn’t fit the narrative many are trying to push.
