: People use simulators with instructors mainly so that they can officially log the hours in some way, not because simulators are not useful without instructors. Part of the instructor's role is just to verify that the student really is using the simulator. No, you ****ing retard. The instructor is there to ensure you are using the simulator properly and learning stuff which will let you live when you enter real IMC. |

What people are asserting here is 180 degrees different from what I
read in all the literature. You cannot fly by the seat of your pants. You can't fly based on sensations. They are too unreliable. Conversely, you can fly without sensations, as long as you have visual and/or instrument information. You're a moron. You're not competent to read with comprehension. Anthony, you don't know **** from shinola. Presuming we're talking about IFR flight, what, precisely, do you find incorrect in MX's paragraph, above? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Presuming we're talking about IFR flight, what, precisely, do you find incorrect in MX's paragraph, above? Flying by sensation Jay. To make a blank statement you cannot fly in IMC by sensations is flat out wrong. While you have to ignore SOME sensations while flying inside a cloud, some sensations give you warning of impending danger. Somebody already pointed out stall buffering. That is a sensation you DON'T want to feel inside a cloud that will not show up on an instrument until it's too late. You would also be surprised, flying by the seat of your pants does work wonders on an ILS approach, especially when you slip slightly below glideslope and adding power to recapture the glide slope can be felt in the seat of your pants, which is a confirmation of what the instruments are reading. If you don't feel that firmness in the seat of your pants, then something is drastically wrong. There are times inside the clag, where you feel more in the seat of your pants better then in VMC because your senses are more heightened. When you add throttle, you should expect to feel some firmness in the seat of your pants, when you reduce, you should feel less. If you don't feel it, something is wrong. Hearing is a sense, something that cannot be ignored. Not sure if you saw my last post on a video about a vacuum problem in IMC, so I am talking from first hand experience. Listening to your engine is a secondary airspeed ***TREND*** indicator. Ignore that, and you will be in more of a boatload of trouble when your vacuum system goes belly up. Hearing my engine while under partial panel procedures probably was the sense that made my life exponentially easier, and the last I know of, hearing is a sense or a sensation.. When used correctly, your senses CONFIRM what you see on the gauges, but when it comes to hearing and feeling, some of those signals cannot be ignored especially when gauges give conflicting information (I.E vacuum failure). When gauges give conflicting information, the emphasis become a little more on senses to bring your skin back home in one piece. Sims are great for IFR procedures, but they do not simulate the real deal. The hood doesn't do it for the real deal. I have taken instrument students and VFR pilots in IMC and afterwards, their reactions have been priceless. If you have not done so yourself, you may want to hitch a ride with a IA pilot and see what it's like to fly an approach even down to 1000 feet AGL which in most cases is not even close to minimums. 1000 feet AGL on a standard descent is only two minutes from being in a milk bottle to touchdown. ILS minimums, it's only 20 seconds. The more you use your senses WITH instruments in IMC, the better chance your outcome will be. |

Why do airline operators prefer that their pilots use a flight management computer instead of flying by hand? Misconception here. The FMC doesnt "Fly" the aircraft, it directs it. You can hand fly with the FMC for guidance. The main purpose of the autopilot is to manage the workload. FWIW I hand fly ALL approaches that I am legal to do so. Frank |

Guys like Yeager and Neil Armstrong where 2 in a million, smack in the golden age of jet aviation. After flying model's, and doing real piloting ,with the advent of the electronic computer I/we designed started aeronautical modeling, like a computerized wind tunnel. Soon computer power, speed and memory enabled writing a cockpit program to "fly" the model. Personally, I could learn more aeronautical science using that program in 1 hour than I could flying 10 hours, but both are necessary. I was able to flight test more X-craft than Yeager and Armstrong put together! That differs from a toy or professional simulator, because it put's us inside a scientific experiment, that we can control and program experiments. The words "aeronautical/aerospace sims" cover a very broad range of software/hardware. Ken |

Flying by sensation Jay. To make a blank statement you cannot fly in IMC by sensations is flat out wrong. It's entirely right. You cannot trust sensations in IMC. You must trust your instruments. While you have to ignore SOME sensations while flying inside a cloud, some sensations give you warning of impending danger. The instruments do a better job of that, and they are consistent and reliable. Somebody already pointed out stall buffering. That is a sensation you DON'T want to feel inside a cloud that will not show up on an instrument until it's too late. If you are watching your instruments and you know your aircraft, why are you experiencing stall buffet? You would also be surprised, flying by the seat of your pants does work wonders on an ILS approach ... I'm not sure that I'd want ILS needles in the seat of my pants. ... especially when you slip slightly below glideslope and adding power to recapture the glide slope can be felt in the seat of your pants, which is a confirmation of what the instruments are reading. You have it backwards: The instruments confirm, not the sensations. You don't need a confirmation of instruments. If there is a disagreement between sensations and instruments, the instruments take priority. If you don't feel that firmness in the seat of your pants, then something is drastically wrong. If you're instruments tell you that you're in trouble, you're in trouble. If they tell you that you're not in trouble, you're safe. The seat of your pants may tell you all sorts of things, but relying on it will result in an accident. There are times inside the clag, where you feel more in the seat of your pants better then in VMC because your senses are more heightened. Completely false. In IMC, you must trust your instruments if you want to stay alive. Ignore what you feel. When you add throttle, you should expect to feel some firmness in the seat of your pants, when you reduce, you should feel less. If you don't feel it, something is wrong. Look at your instruments; they'll tell you if something is wrong. ILS minimums, it's only 20 seconds. The more you use your senses WITH instruments in IMC, the better chance your outcome will be. You aren't in IMC below minimums. |

I'm nauseous just thinking of doing that! Bertie |
