RE the sim. Not defending, just setting the record straight.

The carboard cut-out/CRJ is used for the Multi Crew Cooperation Course. I am 99% sure the CRJ is now in place. The cardboard cut out has been used for the QL Traineeship as well. The QL link guys have a cut out of a Dash-8 (not just the speed tape) placed in there, the QF guys get a 767 I believe. But yes there is a massive tailwind put in to simulate a higher speed. I think the CRJ has now replaced all this.

There is a G1000 sim, used mostly for familiarisation and playing around with the G1000 it doesn't have visuals.

The Tru-flight is your normal everyday, GA sim and used for IF training.
