Sim Riders at the J/C event

mpenguin1 · October 26th, 2005, 23:10

Dale from Simpro USA wanted to say hello & wanted to make sure that everybody enjoyed their simulator ride in the 737. Dale was sorry that we lost motion, but, if their is a next time, he will make sure that everybody works better next time.

Dale really enjoyed having the group down there!

I had a blast man, thanks again for getting that setup!

jdflight · October 27th, 2005, 00:04

I wasn't even signed up and got a chance at crashing. Thanks, Mike and the group at SimPro!

Doug Taylor · October 27th, 2005, 01:44

Tell Dale that next year I'm certainly going to come and to throw that DFW L1011 windshear event at me!

ComplexHiAv8r · October 27th, 2005, 08:54

Yes, it was a blast! Tell them thanks for everything they did for us.

tonyw · October 27th, 2005, 12:04

Dude, it was awesome. Dale has nothing to apologize for.

Kristie you had your chance! If you are ever in Long Beach, tell Doug we can give him the Al Haynes adventure in the MD11!

mpenguin1 · October 27th, 2005, 12:17

Thanks for the comments! I am going to share them with Dale.....

fly22 · October 27th, 2005, 12:36

Ya thanks a ton Mike. It was awesome. By the way Pilot602 is the cuplrit. He broke it. Some FO I was.

pilot602 · October 27th, 2005, 13:21

Yeah I broke it. Whatyagonnadoaboudit?

Tell Dale I had a blast and really appreciated the ride. Sorry I broke it.

fly22 · October 27th, 2005, 13:25

I'm going to fly over your place at about 3:00 in the morning ans unsynch the props.
ha ha

Sound familiar? Muhaha

Wait until he sends you the bill to repair it! LOL

Also, weren't you in the FO seat for that ride?

Kristie · October 27th, 2005, 21:07

So i'm wondering... is there anything you guys would like to be different next year if Dale is able to pull this together again???

FlyChicaga · October 27th, 2005, 22:27

I had a great time in the sim! Especially listening to Joe's smart ass comments.

Dude when turned on the light it really did hurt my rods, ha ha ha. Oh man I hoped I didn't piss him off I was just having a good laugh.

I really did appreciate him helping us out.

Try not to do the same thing at the Scenic sim .... remember, cooperate and graduate!

H46Bubba · October 28th, 2005, 15:39

How about giving Loyd some more realistic distactions! I wouldn't mind some Instrument time and maybe a little bit more time to familiarize with the cockpit layout.

FlyChicaga · October 28th, 2005, 17:16

Next year, if we do this again, I'll draw up some profiles, speeds, weights, etc. for the B737 that we could use. I'd put it in PDF and e-mail it out to all the simmers, so they'd have something to base it on. I'd just need to know the GTOW and stuff for the sim settings to get some basic speeds. I have a slew of B737 manuals from back when we were creating a B737 FTD course at my university, including Southwest Airlines entire flight manuals.

Also, I could write up some basic generic callouts, so you all can see what it's like working in the crew (PF/PNF) environment. I wouldn't want it to get anything too extensive, because that is just taking away from actually getting to fly and feel the airplane! That's why I didn't say much during the sim about callouts or any of that, because just getting a feel for how the B737 handles was probably more rewarding. Some basic speeds, power settings, pitch settings, etc. might help a lot.

BrettInLJ · October 28th, 2005, 19:50

Thanks MPengy! Even without motion it was a blast. Are you going to be around long beach a week from Monday? Its my last day in LA.

Doug Taylor · October 28th, 2005, 20:49

Was it the one with the autopilot on the top of the panel or the one that was beneath the fire control panel?
