[QUOTE=sheppey;10512568]...
A competent simulator instructor should have the skill to take a command seat and demonstrate the various types of unusual attitudes which can occur. You don't need Motion On for that. Pilot interpretation of what the instruments are telling him is the key to successful recovery to safe level flight. For example, a demonstration of a 737 in a spiral dive is easily done. The simulator freeze button is used to stop the simulator and image of the artificial horizon at any point of the spiral flight path. A short discussion may follow as to the most expedient way of getting out of trouble by unloading and leveling the wings etc. A building block exercise if you like.

I am detecting the words of an experienced instructor...couldn't agree more. The whole UPRT business is becoming just that ....
