The sim seems to be on either the 320/380 and you won't know until the day so need to learn pitch/power for both which isn't the hardest thing. They are asking you what pitch/power you're looking for so definitely make sure you know these for the day.
Long Haul suitability also, this was a big question mark in previous posts. From an assessor, they told me that aside from having the required 1500 hrs on type, they are judging this in the sim on how you perform and if they can be satisfied that you will be able to pass the intense conversion course to LH as it's short, intense and expensive. So they are looking to ensure that you can cope with it. Take that how you want but great CRM and IFR knowledge at a minimum.
Thank you for the informative reply, thats helpful.
Just to clarify that the airbus sim would be conduct with normal law right? Otherwise flying in Direct law trimming an Airbus is quite tricky!
