Smokey mate...yeah sort of unrealistic and totally agree with your assessment,will copy that and give it to the sim instructor that stuck to me a couple of weeks ago.......after finishing the sim ride we had a little time to play with so he drummed up the emergency electical(loss of AC Bus 1/2) you know the drill....anyway we were doing so well,he failed an engine (#2)at the OM.....and all hell broke lose......everything happened so fast that we just put the bloody thing down,....up and down like a lady of the nights drawers.... the one thing I do remember were massive fluctuations in the airspeed,hence the question.....thanks for taking the time to reply,..PB
