I just want to understand your comment.
I'm sure if you re-read it you will understand it. It is a procedure which is what it is. if you don't like the procedure, and you may very well have good reasons for not liking it, feel free to let us know. That is what the forum is for and any professional input from you is quite welcome.

Is that right? The point I was trying to make is that, indeed, sometimes there IS information contained in a simulator that is NOT like the airplane (which may result from its being improperly understood, improperly programmed, or completely absent in the simulator – meaning that the simulator WILL NOT act or respond like the airplane) – and I am telling you that I KNOW aircraft simulation, quite well, and I'm recommending that such differences be recognized and avoided at all costs – and if absolutely unavoidable, proper and complete instruction MUST be simultaneously accomplished to ensure that any incorrect information is NOT carried over into the operation of the airplane. In fact, I would suggest discussing such matters with someone exceptionally knowledgeable about and well versed in the operation of the airplane's systems and the impact of those systems on the airplane's performance, handling, and response ... and failing that, please discuss the legal implications involved when someone ignorantly does something in aviation … and I say this in the hope of ensuring the highest degree of safety possible.
Always a good idea as you suggest to try and find someone with someone exceptionally knowledgeable. Still going to try it in the sim. Hopefully the sim instructor that day will be exceptionally knowledgeable.
