Ahh yes Herc, I understand what you're saying. Very good point. Sorry was just trying to clarify that the FD's were not used through out the entire sim ride. Bet yes what you said is correct. I'll tell you what though, it is wierd if you have been flying smaller planes for some time. I had a job on a Twotter not long before I took the interview, and my habits from that were hard to break (especially using the rudder on approach). But the instructor understood that and just guided more than got p****d off about it. Just listen carefully to what he tell you in the sim, follow his instructions and most of all... when he shows you a plate, and asks you to tell him where you are on that plate using your NDB, don't get it wrong! I got it wrong first time, he asked me are you sure, I looked again and then told him the right answer and he was happy... made me feel like a total idiot though since I had dealt with NDB's for the past 18 months.
