AIRPLANE FLYING vrs SIMULATOR TECHNIQUE

Its really quite simple.In an airplane we absorb all the cues that come our way and respond to them.

In a simulator, what the machine does is directly related to input ("fidelity").Once you have memorised the NUMBERS, PITCH ATTITUDE, POWER SETTINGS, CONFIGURATION etc etc, you will always get the same result.Simulator "technique" will never be the same as real world technique, this is not possible.Real world is too complicated and dynamic.
