:thumbright: I had a great time too!
BIG thanks to Brian & Steve for taking the time to let us play on their very expensive simulators.

A very flighty experience.

Only one or two terrain warnings, and a few handbake turns on landing when we hit the brakes :oops:

The guys have offered to do this again for us one evening in the summer.

It will take us that long to put the bits back together :lol:

Seriously though, eveyone did amazingly well even though Charlie couldn't see over the instrument panel and Mark's flight was made a bit more interesting when Sean leant on the emergency shut down switch and turned the simulator into a glider :shock:
