I noticed during a recent Drangonair flight that they are advertising Flight Sims in the in-flight duty free.. .. .Had a quick look, seems more like a toy! Small hand held gadget like a gameboy with more buttons!. .. .Now you will be able to double check the pilot whilst in the air!!!!. .. .Maybe I should post this in Jet Blast or Wannabees!

Sticky. .. .Not sure what you are saying here. Is this device something that connects to the aircraft instrumentation or is it just a game that happens to be sold by an airline?

Twistedenginestarter. .. .My son bought something on Continental that sounded similar to this.. .. .The approach procedure was to reduce power at dive at the runway with 15 degrees nose down.. .. .Definitely a toy!
