Flying an MCC on the autopilot is a waste of time. You should get some time flying manually and getting an appreciation of pitch & power = performance. You don't get that with the autopilot engaged. 'The sim is great' is a bit of an over statement compared to some of the other sims that you can do MCCs on. Most people go from an MCC on to a sim assesment, where the aircraft has to be flown manually with no AP AT or FD.
"Got personal experience of PARC have you?" WHOOOAH hand bag's really flying now
, PARC do more than MCCs!
"it is the instructors that count more than the kit. What a pity that FTE chose to get rid of". What are you on about? They got rid of people becuase they we not needed. Proper order. What's the point in paying a salary to guys that do some work every second month?
"the sim manager is a bit of an arse" Did he/she piss you off or something?
VFE, I take it you've never seen a proper sim.
