Unhappy

I worked for a company building flight simulators consisting of a real panel and yoke, but computer controlled. I used to do "Production flight test" on the simulators. Once I got one where the ailerons were reversed, which I noticed on take off (hard to do a preflight control check in a simulator). I realized what had happened before crashing, and flew around like this for a while, but I would sure hate to have this happen in a real airplane. One of the pilots in the Spectrum jet was a good friend.
