The whole purpose of simulation is realism without reality, after all. In the context of aviation the purpose of simulation is to faithfully duplicate the aircraft flight deck, panels and systems, motion, and outside visual references so that pilot qualification in the simulator translates into pilot qualification in the aircraft. |

No. Simulation reproduces specific aspects of the real world with specific levels of accuracy and realism. No simulation reproduces everything perfectly. Some simulators reproduce certain things perfectly. There is no one size that fits all, nor is it necessary for all simulators to reproduce everything. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

How much Appendix D simulator training and proficiency checks have you had? |
