It's a wacky universe in there, I can complete a credible (as in still flyable afterward) circuit in a B737 but can't pass the MS PPL checkride! FS are cheap to run, but the real word is far, far better. Sorta like comparing sandpaper with a beach ...... David -- A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.
