never looked at the sim that way? I suppose its a bit of a torture chamber for you guys doing the check rides while for me its a jolly! for the few times we done it the weather is off,everything works and we have the benefit of somebody who knows what their doing telling us what to to do, which is probably the complete opposite to a check ride!
If I had the money I would love to own a full motion sim, I would give my PPL up for it...but now I am talking like a helmet,purple mushroom.......bellend
