This should settle it!

But I don't see that this does anything to improve the realism of these
devices with regard to those illusions or visual efforts I mentioned
earlier. Am I missing this?

Disclaimer: I only read about this and have no practical experience.

From what I understand, you are wearing blue safety glasses. These could be
made tight against your face so everything you see has a blue tint to it.
You peripheral vision is also blue.

You have no problems seeing the instruments, they only have a blue tint to
them.

The windows are covered (on the inside) with orange cellophane/plastic. This
gives the safety pilot an orange tint to everything outside the windows.

When you look out the windows with your blue glasses, all you see is grey.

The author would have lamented the marketing for the early tricycle geared
aircraft from Cessna.

The idea behind simulations for education is one that's of interest to me.
Given a gross mistrust of schools (and prompted by an excellent if poorly
named book on teaching math to children:
http://www.csam.montclair.edu/~kenschaft/Mathpower.html), I've been
introducing math to my 4 yo. Recent additions to his education have been
negative numbers and number lines.

But given those, I introduced a couple of days ago how the pairing of two
number lines can be used for addition and subtraction. It's a
"simulation" of the mental process (and also an introduction to mechanical
computing, which I view as having its own value).

Is this a Bad Thing? I'm teaching use of a tool very early. So I've some
doubts.

On the other hand, I've found a site with printable paper E6Bs. That's
one of my goals for the future pilot grin.
