Sonya,

I'm with Stalker on this, great show, but it's definitely spoilt a bit by the constant use of flight decks that are either very much simplified and fake or redressed onto very old chopped front ends.

Loads of professional pilots watch your show, and it just looks cheap and detracts from the quality of the show. The other show also does this and I know budgets preclude a lot of what could be done. A Simulator is about 400 per hour and would be far better if the lighting could be sorted and the back dressed to simulate the rear of the flight deck and door for when cabin crew interject.

Things lie the vibration gauge on the Kegworth incident only really become understandable when an actual Classic 737 instrument is depicted. The whole scenario can be loaded onto a proper simulator and everything but the final crash filmed real time for edit.

Best of luck.


D&T.
