Saw it. Didn't find it particularly offensive so I don't think it was deleted. But it wasn't really appropriate to Private Flying, so maybe the mods moved it to the Professional Studies forum or something like that? Have you checked your PMs?

Did it contain anything that could be seen as advertising?

Yeh thanks anyway mate...I thought seen as it was specifically related to PPL training I might have had some luck! Nevermind

No nothing at all. Basically I'm doing a dissertation at Uni and the head of the course wants me to assess the possibilities of using the uni's new FNPT sim for something which would benefit PPL students other than for the 5 hours instrument training. My question was does anyone know a good source for the development of flight simulators and does anyone have any opinions on whether sims can be useful during PPL trg. For example if you were to put a student in a simulator and teach them effects of controls...how more likely are they to pick it up quicker in a real a/c.

Sorry mate , it will be back soon........ :)
