Sid,
Answer the question please.
How do you know your Sim is programmed to react as a properly Rigged Aircraft?
As you alter the Environmental and Operational Criteria on your Sim....does it also alter the Rigging Data?
My experience on Sims...having taught at two Factories is that the Sim only somewhat replicates those characteristics.
The Sim Operator can do workarounds on most parameters but the basic aircraft data can be hard to change.
Example....Israeli Defense Forces came to us wanting to do some Sim work and try to replicate a crash they had when a crew way overloaded an external hoist.
The only way we could do that was by adding seat weights on that side of the aircraft until we achieved both the Aircraft Weight and CG's both Lateral and Longitudinal. The question one would have to decide is if the Sim Aeronautical Model would then hold true for Instrument Indications and reactions to control inputs. The one thing we did learn is recovery from that situation was counter intuitive.....if our Sim was showing us accurate performance.
Sims are great for training but they are not exact duplicates of the actual aircraft.
They at best are just pretty good guesses by Aircraft Test/Design Engineers and Software Engineers as to how the actual aircraft reacts.
Anyone that thinks their aircraft shall react just like the Sim simply do not understand the complexity of computer modeling.
They are great for teaching procedures and CRM and other imitations of real life aviating but they very much have their limitations.
