Being outside the industry, how does this sort of scenario fit into simulator time? I can imagine that normally sim time would be spent more on higher complexity procedures diagnosing and reacting to faults as well as more difficult scenarios (IMC etc).
Is a CAVOK manual approach something so mundane as to not be spent time in training, hence allowing for simple things like the AT setting to be in the way, or does it just come down to simply not flying the numbers?
