No PPL.
Only "REAL" Aircraft ever flown were controlled from the ground using a set of thumbs. :-)

First time in A300 Cockpit
First time into LPMA
No briefing, no coaching.

Lots of noobs there that day.
Some could do it right away, some not even after multilple tries.

Any PPL holder that can not land one of these on a nice day without other distractions from a straight approach should look for another hobby.

Only talking about simulators of course.
I have no idea how a try in a real plane would end up.
Would go for it though ...
