This morning EAA 309 went on a tour of US Air's flight training facility and each of us got to try their hand at the full motion Airbus Sim.
To say it was WAY COOL would be an understatement!
That thing is so realistic it just blew us all away and the best part is we can log it as actual flight time, that's how good it is.
I did learn one thing, you can't take an airbus from 7,000 feet AGL and eight miles and do a full deflection slip w/ flaps and make the runway, it just won't come down that fast.
The strange part was starting the flair at 75'. Not something I would suggest in an RV.
