Haha, thats a good one. I don't usually mention it though, but it is why I was curious to that question.


Back to the thread...

Essentially the thing with sims is use it as a tool, it won't teach you everything but it does help. I learned the concepts of rolling circles with a sim, and then used these concepts to learn the maneuver in real life. It is a great tool, but it doesn't replace experience. None of us are trying to be mean about this, we are just trying to help. I wish I would have found this forum a lot earlier in my flying career, it would have saved me a lot of heartache.
