@crab That's the kind of thing I was thinking too. Some of the simulators out there now are very detailed, and I would assume that they collect all kinds of different information when you use them.Things like cable management, load control, hoist speed, etc. It would be interesting to see what kind of performance metrics come out of it so you would see how well you perform in a given situation.

I think it all depends on the instructor or the person in the situation though, as to what kind of information they would want to see. A bunch of graphs showing their cable management strength when deflection, cable control, hoist speed, etc.? Whereas someone else may want to see how the operator controls the load/survivor and prevents them from spinning or getting stuck in the TFZ.
