Line Up and Wait
Well, the wind was not cooperating today, so my instructor suggests, hey, you want to do an instrument lesson in the sim? Sure, I say, no problem!
Mind you, this is the first time I crawled into this chamber of ill will...the freeking thing is way more sensitive than the plane, and I get no sensory-movement feedback from the sim like flying the plane.
At first, I was like all over the place, I found it alot harder to control the sim than the plane. I finally settled down some and managed a few pretty sloppy minutes in the thing...oh and the torture part...
How many consecutive and various system failures can an awesome but evil CFI throw at one person...thats a good thing about the sim (I guess) Talk about multi-tasking...but it drove home the point. At least I didn't prang the sim in.
Liz...you reading this? See how lucky you are NOT to have to get into one of these things
