Probably a good thing, that was complete nightmare fuel for me!

I did when I was hired in 2011, great experience. It's unfortunate if they removed this training.

I think you can go to OKC and do it for free with the FAA:

Is there any chance that the company will work with employees on the distance from a reporting base requirement? I'm seriously looking at all of the home-based options that are out there, with PlaneSense being at the top of the list, but I unfortunately live a 3 hour drive from their nearest reporting base. Making that drive would be absolutely no issue for me, but I'm wondering if that would be out of the realm of possibility for the company to allow or make work?
