The FAA, US Military and I agree that a simulator is a substitute for real
flight training. In fact I have no knowlege of anywhere that would not
require simulator time as part of training.

...which displays your ignorance of the subject.

There is NO simulator requirement as part of training for any FAA pilot
certificate short of the ATP. Simulator training is ALLOWED, but not
required.


Well you know what, as a systems engineer it is my job. All those
instruction on how to operate are written by engineers.

Nope. You are wrong again.

Many of the instruction[s] and procedures in Dash-1s, NATOPS, and FHBs are
written by non-engineers.

Good thing too, can you imagine a procedure written by tarver? It would be an
asset to the enemy.

Actually tech writers translate engineerese into a known language.
