Current Issues with our simulations
As with all professional flight simulations, the last 10% of the work takes 90% of effort. We have developed our simulations to be as accurate as they can be based upon publicly available data, however, there are a few areas that the simulation still requires further work and they are identified here. We thank our pilots for their continued feed back.

Simulation is not as aircraft, and this could lead to negative training. This takes priority over all others
WRONG
This aircraft feature is not simulated
MISSING
This feature would be desirable on our simulations
DESIRABLE
This aircraft feature is being investigated for its relevance to the simulation
CHECKING
This aircraft feature is not always correctly simulated, or simulated poorly
IMPROVE
Defect has now been addressed and is in the latest version, or is due to be in the nest version of software
