In the sim they will tell you that you have to call for the checklist, rather than doing things on your own.
In real life Captain will not be influenced by the training captain's criticism, so he will disregard the checklist, or call for it much later.
it is just my opinion, coming from experience
Hi MB2002,
the SIM IS real life. The training captain's criticism comes if there is something wrong somewhere, and that's the point where you do not want to end up. Some old school old fashioned guys will probably behave as you say, but probably they're still back on their mind on how they use to do it on a DC-8 or a 742. Here we are talking about different material and everything happens for a reason. My advice is that whatever you will do in the SIM and whatever you will show the trainer, he will expect you to do it when you will be up there flying, that's the main and only reason of SIM sessions. If you apply your procedures and you are legal and safe you will have a friendly chat with flight safety ops in the worst scenario.
Cheers.
