Possibility of getting in a sim?

Lee D said:
Way back when I was a CFI, I met an instructor for Mesa at my flying club. One day when something fell through for him, I got a chance to fly in a CRJ sim without the motion on.

Know somebody or pony up a fair amount of cash. As I understand our little Brasilia SIM at Flight Safety is around $1000 per hour. So I would imagine the newer ones are even more.

Holy CRAP!!! Maybe I need to rethink this. Oh wait, it is owned by the government, so not sure I want to go to jail making a little cash on the side!

If you make it down to the San Antonio area, I can get you in the C-5 sim. It won't be during "normal hours" but it's pretty fun nonetheless.

I'll have to log this in the back of my brain housing group for the next time I'm over that way visiting family...hopefully I don't forget. :cwm27:

Mini, FSI has no problems letting people not affiliated with FSI observe. They just need to sign in and go through the ropes. I believe there is a hold harmless agreement they have to sign.

It happens all the time.

Why does that not surprise me. :mad:

I should have asked my sim instructor but I figured the guy teaching my ground would know just as well as the sim guy so I left it go.

I've been trying to get into the CRJ sims in SLC for years, without luck.

I have some co-workers who have gotten in. Somebody in SLC likes to hook up Skywest employees. though I would imagine a seperate company handles the sims. I've been trying to find a way in myself, if I do I'll keep you in mind.

I know I've posted this before but I was wondering if anyone had or knew how to hop in a sim to pretend like I'm a big boy.

I know when I was lucky enough to get in the A320 it was very humbling.

Thanks for any help!

Mike.

Be friendly.

Make lots of friends.

You never know who is watching that might be able to get you into a simulator! ;)

Nice Pics! I wonder why Delta is keeping the L-1011 sim around?

I would love to go for a spin in one of those. I've been thinking about maybe doing the ATOP program down the road, but I don't really want to shell out $500 for 2 hours.

AA has the 707 sim and a few F100 sims. They rent out the F100 sims.
