757 vs 767 Sim check?
Hi!
I have a question for some of you, flying both the 757 and the 767 or if you have experience from both.
I have been lucky enough to make it to the second stage with Thomsonfly.
I am going to fly the sim check on the 757, but since I haven’t flown this aircraft before I was hoping to do some practice in a real sim before the day. Fortunately enough I have access to a 767 simulator for free, so my question is, would it be worth the practice or are they too different in there handling characteristics?
Regards

Any practise is good practise. If you can get in a 76 then I would get as much time as possible.
There are some differences but for a sim check you will probably not notice. The instrument flying is the important bit and the instrumentation is identical on both types.
The only difference will be the config, whether it has a speed tape or a fast/slow pointer. Don't worry about this, they both have the clockwork ASI anyway.
Any more questions PM me.

Did my 757/767 LPC in a 767 sim..although Im flyin the 75 at the moment. No real difference..a little less performance in the 767...more sensitive ailerons at low speed, but thats about it. The instrument fit is basically identical.
