Question on Baron 58 prop control

Hehe.. both good points!

But the way he talked about the experience, I think it was a bit more
than that!

He was an experienced pilot then, and continued to fly heavies for the
rest of his career.

But he remarked (after I asked him "what the H--- happened?") he
related the experience was more "real" than he could have
imagined...

He said this experience suspended the reality of the sim, only to
return after the "landing" and the instructor turned the lights on...

He already had the job....

Sims have their place. I picked a friend just after he went through a
"sim" session, (He was training in a new type, 737 I think)

He was a MESS! They had piled several failures on him, he had to
change his clothes, he was soaked, and actually shaking a bit, and
his voice was unsteady. Maybe a sim, but what they put him through
was "real" enough! (he passed)

Probably two factors that brought on the sweat factor (and realism).

A. It probably was a full motion sim (or sim where he sat in it rather
then in front of a computer)

B. He had a job riding on the outcome

Much different then sitting in front of a computer monitor PLAYING MSFS
