My 150 costs me very little to operate why use a
simulator when I have the real thing available maybe it will take longer but I feel I will get more skill actually flying then in a simulator. Actually, I think you are off base there. There are things you can do with a sim that you can't really do with the real airplane in terms of system failures. Only thing is, certified sims (at the light GA level - I'm not talking about the stuff with visuals and motion) are a waste of time and money. They are inferior training tools to Microsoft Flight Sim. No, you can't log the MSFS time (except as ground instruction) but it's quite valuable - and a copy of MSFS costs less than an hour in one of those sims. BTW, I see nothing wrong with using a C-150 for IFR training. It's not really a practical IFR travel machine, but it does fine if you want to make hundred mile hops in benign IMC. As for max 3 in a day - yes, usually, but I've had a student who was able to handle more. Only one, though. Michael |
