The problem with simulators is that no one ever died in one.


Sure they have, it was just simulated

But seriously, why would you want someone dying in a simulator? Seems rather
hard to apply the lessons learned, if you arent alive afterwards, which is
the whole point of a simulator in the first place.

Well a simulator is supposed to simulate reality. We had a B-26 simulator at
Lake Charles and before we got in we used to say, "not to worry, you can't be
shot down in it". Just a little black humor.
