can anyone suggest a list of emergency situations that can be tried

with Condor?

Low altitude rope break
Thermalling too low near ridges
Stall/spin at low altitude
Non-standard landing patterns
Low final glides
Joining a ridge too low (before it gets steep)
Wind too weak on ridges

Just to name a few that come to mind.

All the best,

Thanks Daniel!

These are all things where it would be really good to use a simulator but
will the current simulators do a good job?

They mostly need some combination of wide field of view, so you can see
your landing area when it's alongside and disappearing behind, and high
resolution, so you get good distance perception. For stall/spin training
the sensations can be overwhelming and a fixed simulator can't deliver
that.
