I'm sure I will. Cheers 99. I'm trying to get a bit of practice in with flight simulator, but I never use it and I find my joystick really odd to use!

Can I just check, does the EFIS installed on the 737 sim used have a speed tape next to the A.I, but no altitude tape? Hence, do you need to consult analogue/conventional instrumentation when referencing vertical speed and altitude? I followed a previous link to some 737-500 (?) cockpit panel images, but they weren't that clear. It would just be great to know the general layout of the instruments that need to be used during the sim ride so I don't really get too many surprises on the day.

Also, since I have a PPL, will it be necessary to revise anything in particular from the syllabus, or is it just my general skill after x amount of hours that they're interested in?

Thanks again.
