John Farley. Your points are taken. During simulator training on the non-landing credits trainers, there are pilots who are able to consistently execute good landings on the same machine and others who appear (for example) to fly straight into the deck due failure to flare. The problem for the simulator instructor is to decide whether to disregard either technique because he knows the simulator was never designed to have landing fidelity. It would be wrong for the instructor to say "a bit late on the flare Bloggs" when Bloggs could quite understandably come back with "Excuse me Sir, but forgive me if I am wrong, but isn't this a non-landing credits flight simulator and the landings do not represent the behaviour of the real aircraft at the flare - so why are you commenting?" And the way I see it F/O or Captain Bloggs has a good point.
Put another way, a lawyer would rip the instructor apart if Bloggs was to complain that his landings were being unfairly hammered by the simulator instructor. Hence my original question of where does simulator fidelity deemed to be unsound following the break out on ILS final to complete a visual path below the ILS decision height?
