Must be the same checker I had for my initial LST on the 747-400....or are they all briefed to make life extra stressful in that company? I was asked to present my second pair of glasses which as far as my understanding goes is not required in the sim, only in an aircraft. I offered to shoot out to the car park after the session to prove I owned a second pair but that was not good enough apparently. He had to call the training dept at the end of the session, saying he was unwilling to sign me off. Surprise surprise he was ordered to stop being pedantic and get the paperwork completed.
