I was having a really hard time w/ NDB holds and what not, so rather than spending the $$$ in the simulator, I would spend hours MSFS praciticing.

NDBs are dying anyway!! Wait a little while longer, and it'll be out of the PTS completely!! Worthless skill set. Well, not worthless, as some purists will say otherwise.
Good riddens!!!!

I did more NDB approaches and holds than I can count on my fingers in the sim. Plus, I've already done 3 actual NDB approaches (in IMC) on the line. All into MDW. Thank goodness we have ADF overlay on the EHSI. Just push the head, pull the tail...
NDBs still have use. I guess when the localizer goes down in SBN, it's NDB approaches into the lake effect snow.
Haven't done that yet.
