Uplinker:
In the light of recent accidents, I think that two other mandatory elements should be added to every SIM from now on:
1. Unusual attitude recovery.
2. Primary instrument failure, identification and recovery.
Mad (flt) Scientist:
The first of those already exists, and was even started at the operator (1.18.3 in the report details this - the requirement was going to be effective in May, the accident happened in January; the operator had started to train their crews....
In 16 years of airline flying and SIMs with two airlines, I have never had unusual attitude training or even practice in the SIM.
