xCruzo Brief

United Airlines says it has completed Phase 1 of expanding what it calls the world’s largest pilot training facility in Denver. The project includes upgrading simulation software so pilots can be trained for any scenario involving an aircraft. United pilots say the simulators feel like they are flying a real airplane. The center now uses 82 simulators to train 860 pilots per day out of Denver, providing more than 32,000 hours of training. CEO Scott Kirby said the goal is constant safety by placing crews in realistic situations they may never have faced. Phase 2 is due to begin next year and be operational by 2030, as United plans at least 1,300 additional jobs this year.
