My parents have given me a choice, I can go in a 727 simulator for an hour OR have an hours instruction in a multiengine aircraft
(Piper Seminole with bonus avation) can I have some help to make my mind up please and also some details of the seminole ie does it have retractable gear?
thanks

CK,
Just popped into this thread so not sure if you have got PPL or are a stude?
If you are neither I would go for the simulator as it has to be good fun value.
If you are a student I would convert it into more flying vouchers for your training or take a raincheck to be cashed in after you get your PPL.
If you have your PPL and just want a blast go for either the twin hour or the simulator whatever takes your fancy.

CK,
Read on the other thread that you are 15 so with that and the 30 hours to go I take it you're a stude.
Depending on how deep the coffers are I would suggest putting it towards your PPL training.
If money is no object you should do whatever takes your fancy.
Doing an hour in a twin is good fun as is the simulator.
Neither one is likely to make any appreciable difference in your careerpath.
