I'm pretty certain it is a Super 1-11 sim. It definitely was in the mid 90s.

Don't seem to recall it being particularly demanding then - May have changed! I remember most of the power settings being done by the guy in the RHS. No assymetric, so don't even THINK about touching those pedal things, just both hands on the yoke, and scan!

Attitudes and power settings were given in a table a short while before the check, and available on a clipboard during.

Somebody in recruitment gave me a pretty good piece of advice just beforehand, it went something like this:

You can't act unless you think. You can't think unless you relax, and you can't relax unless you TRIM!

Ergo: Trim, relax, think, act.

The sprag clutch on the very noisy trim wheel, is probably THE most important thing to understand on the whole detail. Have it explained fully!

Apologies if I am a little out of date. These memories are a few years old now!
