Interesting proposition, but I wonder how many people have tried or done this before...

Yes, you can simulate some of this stuff in full-flight simulators. Yet there are MANY pilots out there who have never gone beyond the required stall demos of a Private or Commercial license, so 3 days of training is some kind of simulator scenario will likely help them considerably. At the other end of the spectrum is the military tactical or "fighter" pilots who have encountered intense, repeated out-of-control training (and, likely, at least a few occasions of unplanned out-of-control flight).

Look to the military schools for the experience in such training...
