So, if such situations were "highly unlikely" as you stated, there wouldn't be much point in providing such a simulation, would there? Neil |

They are highly unlikely outside of heavy traffic areas, both in real life and in simulation. However, as a general rule, simulation provides for broader control of circumstances than real life provides, precisely so that extreme and improbable situations can be simulated for practice. A commercial pilot may fly for his entire career without experience a failure of all engines at the same time, but it's very easy to simulate, which makes it possible for him to practice and be prepared for such a situation should it ever actually arise. That's one of the great advantages of simulation. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

You can be the only one in the vicinity, but still not be able to get a word in edgewise. And, it isn't uncommon. Let's see if you can figure out why that is. This is a perfect example of what several others have already told you; you are arguing from a position of total ignorance. If you don't know the real answer, you can not make a valid argument. Chalk up all of your responses of this nature as 100% noise. Neil |
