It still doesn't entirely replace flight hours, it only augments them.
There
are darn few "good simulators" that can remotely compare to the real thing,
and
this was over 30 years ago,
Presumably they are better now than then.
The last simulator I was in was for the F-15 up at Edwards. Still a video
game, albeit on a GIfrickinGANTIC screen, compared to the real thing.
What's a WST?
Navy-ese for simulator - "Weapons System Trainer".

Its always better to lose -an- engine, not -the- engine.
