I fail to see your point.

Brush up on your 9/11 history.

Ata and his fellow terrorists trained
specifically in full motion simulators designed to duplicate the exact
type of aircraft they took over and flew. There were no landings
involved in their actions.

Tell Dekker and Hilliard that. Then wait for the laugh.

Ah yes. Should have caught on with the tone of your initial post.
Forgot who you are for a moment. Chalk it up to getting older.
So much for "piloting" posting today; onward now to things a bit more
productive. Have a nice day. :-)))))))

Keep in mind that:

1) You don't know everything
2) Venice is in my neck of the woods, Hilliard is a neighbor and...

Hopsicker keeps posting observations about Huffman. He has deja vu with

Who said anything about a Cessna? The original post said she had
experience as a *commercial* pilot. That tends to mean something a bit
bigger than just a personal aircraft.

You can fly commercially in a Cessna. And unless you also have a job as a
commercial pilot in addition to the CPL, you might not ever fly anything much
larger than that.

Yep. Might not. Or might have.

I believe the lady herself said during a TV interview that her
experience was restricted to light aircraft. The type "Cessna" was
mentioned.

Cessna makes or made (I don't recall the current structure of the
personal aircraft inudstry) some heavier aircraft than the 150s I
used to fly. Including some Jets (the Citation line).

Yes. I fly a Citation X on my trusty sim all the time. But flying jets is
expensive, and one need not do so for a CPL. Indeed, it might well be the
other way around: CPL, then jets.

FOR THE RECORD, YOU SIMULATE FLYING.

BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SIMULATING FLYING AND FLYING A REAL PLANE.
