Do sim pilots log their time?

I suspect success or failure says something about you, as a pilot, land a real plane, rather than anything about the sim. In other words, if you land a real plane more by sight-picture and numbers, you'll probably have no trouble landing the Kiwi -- but if you land a plane more by "feel", you'll likely not have good luck in the sim. I honestly don't know, though. -- Jay Honeck Only tried a sim a couple times. Did not land well. I guess I land by feel. Once on short final, I don't look at the guages any more. -- Gene Seibel Gene & Sue's Aeroplanes - http://pad39a.com/gene/planes.html Because we fly, we envy no one.

I mean, if you end up on the simulated runway and you don't get the simulated cracks in the simulated windshield acompanied by the simulated crashing sound, you know you didn't simulate wrecking a simulated airplane, but beyond that??? -- Geoff The Sea Hawk at Wow Way d0t Com remove spaces and make the obvious substitutions to reply by mail When immigration is outlawed, only outlaws will immigrate.

I always got the simulated cracks in the simulted windshield. I think I 'landed' successfully once. The last version I used was 98 (I think). It ran on Windows 95. No sound.
