Will depend on your experience: jet time etc. I had plenty of multi-engine, but only piston. Expect sim to be the Alteon Embraer 145 in Manchester (Didsbury area?).

In my case, training captain occupied LH seat. Take-off, climb, level-off, with appropriate calls/responses (+ve climb, gear up, etc). Fly SID raw data. Can ask captain to call distances, radial crossing, etc if you want, ie use him to make your life easier. Climbing turn to roll out on heading and level off at altitude at the same time. Watch your speed control. Then descending turn back onto original level and heading. Make sure you get that thrust back up to keep speed on level off. Then repositioned to long final. Position frozen and engine shut down, giving you a chance to get it trimmed out SE. Then unfrozen to fly ILS to land. I was given second go at SE ILS, but got unstable again - not good enough...

Never mind, flying 737 now..
