Simulating AF447 in the simulator
As part of my airline's recurrent simulator training, we have been asked to simulate the Air France incident. In order to practice the 'Startle Effect' (and to avoid the pilots knowing what is going to happen next)it has been left to the discretion of the instructor on how to simulate this in the sim.
I have some ideas in mind ( Volcanic ash encounter and blocked pitos)however would appreciate any feedback from fellow TRI's.
