I don't think this is a good idea. It seems like a waste of time and money. Why do we need to spend more on virtual training when we already have in-air training? This is just going to make things more complicated for everyone.

Ugh, this bill is such a joke! Like, who even came up with this idea? It's gonna mess everything up for me and my friends. Can't believe they're actually gonna go through with it. This is gonna be a disaster in the short term for sure.
