Sorry to say this-but this is where a lot of "false advise" comes from, as the simulator only simulates whatever someone programmed into it (usually based on facts and data fed from live aircraft, but-in case of emergency procedures-mainly from "pilot tells" stories)..
We were fully aware of that. We were in very close liaison with the person who wrote the software we were dealing with and he was able to keep us very well informed.
Did you not read the rest of my post? Especially this paragraph:
Until that time the only tail rotor "failure" covered in the FRC checklist was drive shaft failiure. We flew many different scenarios in the sim which enabled us to provide guidance on other types of failures. We were careful not to give actual drills to follow by rote because correct diagnosis of the actual type of malfunction was critical and we were "flying" a simulator, not the real aircraft and the response of the sim may not have been exactly as per the real airframe.
