Default Confusion about when it's my navigation, and when it's ATC

Nomen,

Why do so many real pilots have trouble landing in the sim, then?


One of the reasons is the useless rudder modeling.


I think the main reason is lack of visual clues.

In a Level D simulator in 121 opertions a rating candidate must
demonstrate landing in the maximum crosswind limit for that aircraft.
This is done with the visual set at severe clear. When the aircraft is
decrab in the flare the rudder has to be used "just right." (another
example of employment of rudder to maintain the present and essential
flight path track. ;-)

Some folks have to practice it more than others before they are ready
for the rating ride.
