United Airlines lifts curtain on expanded flight training center

United Airlines this week unveiled what the carrier is touting as the world’s largest flight training center for pilots. The new facility is situated outside Denver, near where United has a hub at Denver International. The revamped and expanded facility's opening is the culmination of a decision management made 3 years ago to consolidate all United’s pilot training efforts at a single facility in Denver. That kicked into gear a plan to renovate and double the number of flight simulators at the Denver facility, which now total more than 30. United previously operated flight training centers in both Denver and Houston. <br/>
