It was 12 years ago and examiner might not have put in logbook so there are 3 in my logbook and possibly a 4th that he forgot to enter. It was 12 years ago...how good is your memory from 2005? My friend is at United with 2 DUIs, one recent so ill take your HUGE problem with a HUGE grain of salt.

How can you have no training issues and have 3 OR 4 (what is it 3 or 4?) check ride failures? And yes I'd say that is a HUGE problem.

Im just finishing degree and would love to come to United next year but afraid these failures from 2005 might hurt. Anyone with similar experience?
I would apply, update frequently, and let United decide if its huge deal or not

Being untruthful doesn't just kill your chances with an airline, it defines you as a person. Are you that insecure with who you are as a person that you need to compensate? Three or four is still a lot when you are competing against people with clean records who are openly admitting their faults. A mistake that you own and grow from is easily forgiven but a mistake that you deny and lie to conceal is a blemish that can't be forgiven.

Thank you for your reply but how am I being untruthful? I openly admit it here and also did so on my application. I was a young kid and eager to finish as quickly as possible. Didnt realize checkride failures could have an effect later on down the road. Ive obviously learned from my mistakes and havent made another in over 12 years.

There is "possibly" a fourth failure?
My memory from 2005 is fantastic and I'm sure as **** Gona remember if I ever failed a checkride.
So did you fail 3 or 4? Tell the truth.
If you don't tell the truth to yourself then how you can possibly pass an interview?

Okay, I went to a part 141 flight school with a ton of end of courses and stage checks. It could have been one of those that was the 4th. I really dont remember so ill just say 4. Is there some special line between 3 and 4 failures that im not aware of?

and for your information failing a stage check at a 141 flight school will not hurt you at all. I think I understand now why you don't remember.
Failed rateing rides and 121 checkrides will hurt you.
So did you fail stage checks? Or rateing rides?
