I've NEVER accepted a visual-based approach in any sim with
limited screen visuals where my licence (and income) are on
the line Centaur, much less accept the following of any damn
box-generated magenta or green line within the circuit when
my head should be outside watching the runway/terrain like a
bloody hawk. That's not me trying to be an inflexible hardass,
but trying to keep an uninterrupted paycheck and unblemished
resume.
If the visuals were up to par then likely this event wouldnt've
happened. However in this situation Id've gone around - sim
checks are not only a test of simulator-handling skills and sim
technique but of SOP knowledge irrespective of practicality or
any successful exercise outcome.
