Nothing, and I mean nothing beats my cadet story though. A colonel from the Air Force of a neighboring country was sent to us at the national airline. He demanded to be called a Colonel even when in civilian attire. The sim facility refused to issue him an SIC type rating or recommend him for a checjride. He came back with a “letter of completion” to save face. The bestest part was that the Air Force of the afrikan nation in question didn’t have, nor have they ever operated an aircraft.
