using MSflightsim for prep

[druglord]

i want to try using MS flightsim to prepare for the sim (in addition to real sim time) any suggestions on the best way to prepare?

druglord,

You can get an add on ms flt sim called 747-200 ready for pushback.

Then get yourself a good joystick, and your set.

I used this prior to my sim to get the procedures down, and I must say, its excellent.

Dont remember how much the add on is, but u will be out no more that a few hundred $$ in total, well worth it for what ur trying to accomplish.

If you have trouble finding it, Im done with my CD...($$)

Good Luck.

Agree...

I battled to find an add-on for practice, but obviously real sim is still the best. Procedure wise you cannot go wrong to do a bit of prep on MS flightsim. Know the speeds and call outs, and above all - you must know that profile off by heart. MS Flightsim is a good way to achieve this, but you might still required some "hands-on" time to give you the feel for the aircraft.

Good luck!
:ok:

Fantastic site for prep books, etc too.
