Frasca Mentor G1000

[polaris]

Anyone try the Frasca Mentor G1000 Sim?

I tried it for the first time today at a simulator training center, and it was pretty phenomenal. The only other G1000 Sim I've ever flown was a Red Bird, and it was complete garbage. The knobs were inaccurate and there were tons of glitches that made it practically useless. It didn't help that my instructor didn't know what he was doing and completely wasted my money trying to figure it out for himself.

The Frasca Mentor sim actually had the look and feel of a G1000. The knobs looked and felt like an actual G1000. I am a huge fan!

I just flew one at Century Air at KCDW (Essex Co, NJ) last week for the first time. It's looks and feels like a real G1000 because it is a real G1000

The visual system was better than expected, too.

They're now talking with Frasca to get PilotEdge working with it.

Do they maintain a current database?

I have been fortunate enough to have about 1K hours behind a G-1000...spoiled me really...

Do they maintain a current database?

I didn't ask.
