Actually I had the MS flight sim when I was flying 757/767's. It really helps on those 6 or 9 month checks, depending on the airline. It is a true story but if you don't believe it that is fine too. I was there so know it was. I also want you to know that I got the 30 hr add on course to get a rotorwing commercial rating. That makes me a chopper pilot even though that grinds on some people here. Note the guy who put down the post about the chopper? Some of us out here actually do what we say we do, some don't. For proof I can send you my retirement flight to TGU on a PM. Or you can accept my word. If monitors want to remove this post feel free because it doesn't seem to be going anywhere.
