Last summer, I was literally the only crewmember going through MD initial, literally. I watched the 747 sim in the GAT sit for hours unused while the B&G said the schoolhouse was over run. This problem is UPS's direct decision to not utilize the hard assets and under-staff the airline and instructor/IOE IPA staff. They have volunteers they refuse to train even to this day because of "xxx".
This is a solvable problem, and UPS has tackled it in the past, I have seen it. Some of the sim times might not be the greatest, but it can be done if they want to.

But the 400s aren’t green environmentally anymore. Very troubling decision for our CEO I am sure. 😐
