a most refreshing thread
Sim checks, are as suggested a box ticking exercise.....I wonder if it would be possible to legislate for a "mandatory free time", of say 30 mins for the dead stick approach, etc, etc.
Normally by the end of the required sessions we are not very happy to sit and sweat for another 30 mins...but the best sim sessions I have ever had, have ben the dead stick approach, and the ONE engine take off.
How can we get back to flying the aircraft, rather than the computer....when it all goes wrong, usually the computer fails not the airframe.....
