Before 9/11 we sometimes finished our session by a free ride around Manhattan, passing under the bridge, in between the Twins, and eventually with a double flameout and landing at JFK.
Also flying THROUGH tall buildings was as exciting as stupid... but after 4 hours at 100% it was a well earned videogame.
Then we realized the visual display is duplicated in the control room, and wondered what the guy outside may have been thinking of us....
I like the scenarios suggested by
Centaurus, and wish I could have more instructors like him.
Mastering the fundamentals of flying is what gives you incredible confidence, over which you can build all the rest.
