So did you hold a simulated service with simulated mourners and simulated flowers? For a real pilot to attempt a flight under the conditions you describe with the total lack of preperation you describe, that person would have to be extremely stupid and ignore a huge pile of regulations and have absolutely no common sense. Simulation and real life are two different things, as so many here are fond of saying. Odd that they are more than willing to confuse the two when it suits their purpose. You might as well have posted "I simulated shoving a hand grenade up my butt and I got blown to hell. Is it really possible to shove a hand grenade up my butt?" Aircraft manufacturers spend a great deal of money on simulation of normal and extreme situations, involving things that nobody would ever attempt in real life. Why do you think they do that? Nonsense. Manufacturers do simulations to avoid cost. What you simulated was what happens when an ignorant individual attempts a flight without doing the legally required preparation, finds their self in over their head, and continues on anyway instead of turning back. No mystery there. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |
