Thanks Aerobat77.....I smelled it too..

I've been doing this long enough, especially as an MEII to tell you that LAST thing you do is take up Jets and Tprops, and do shutdowns......flight idle simulates a feathered prop or a dead engine just fine.

To prove this point Guppy has only to provide the name of ONE training provider, that takes up real Jets and Turboprops to perform shutdowns, taking the chance with million dollar gear to fly around on one engine, cavitating the mechanical fuel pump for training purposes.

And even if we can find a provider that has no regard for the owner's plane...I wanna meet the CFII that's got the balls to do it...these aren't Apaches, nor is it a Sim.

I mean if everyone is on me for doing V1 cuts in real jets, on real runways....who's up there flying around jets and turboprops and shutting down engines?
