So the simulation is seriously defective.

On a computerized ground simulator, you _will_ land your airplane in a
farmer's field.

But if it were real, you would do a
soft field landing in his field. Something
that you *have* trained and practiced
doing.

With the engine shut off?

Why the fsk do we have to keep going over
this with you. I assume that you have a
little bit of brains. I know you're not
totally ignorant.

I'm just demonstrating different viewpoints. Many pilots here clearly have
limited experience and even more limited perspective. A little knowledge is a
dangerous thing.

If you want to intelligently discuss training
and procedures, get the manuals and study
them.

I do.
