| Hello Dave's......... perched in his......F/O seat... as he begins his 'Sim' adventure..... here we goooooooooooooooo, I got to say...Dave..........your kinda cute......omg.....that was a weak moment....ughhh.....LOL |
 |
Michael my Instructor, like they were lined up...... was a retired captain who finished his career on the 747...... He couldn't have been nicer or more patient,......practice for 'Sainthood'......lol..........he's going straight to heaven........for this.......... we discussed my level "IN"experience and we agreed to practice some touch and go's for the next 2 years..........and basically anything I wanted.........funny when Dave asked for a drive through for fried chicken...........and daiquiri shop to go......OH MR. 747 DIDN'T SEEMED AMUSED.........HIS LOSS...........!!
We chose Gatwick (EGKK) in the UK, is there another......... as it is an area and airport I know well from "SLACKING..........."my desktop sim and we started with a taxi around on the ground to get the feel of the aircraft. (that 'feel' will get ya 1 to 5 yrs in the pen)I choose the First Officer's seat as that most closely matched my set up on my home system.........yea yea yea........;)
|
 |
We began powered up and ready to go after the briefest of setup on the flight computer, when we started to taxi I couldn't believe it, we could feel every bump and crack....DIDN'T I TELL YOU ""NOT"" TO EAT BEANS THE NIGHT BEFORE..............BUT.........NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
on the apron(like you cook) as the aircraft gathered speed, the full motion sim felt unbelievably realistic!(PERV)
We had to wear safety harnesses (I'm wearing a 'Safty' harness now....... while putting this together)....... in case(WE HAD OPTIONS ?????) had an accident! |
 |
Once cleared to take to the air, I pushed on the thrust leavers and there was that familiar kick in the pants(LU LU BELL.........PERFECT TIMING.) we all get when we sit in the back on our way to who knows where.(yea like from Pat O'Briens) We were soon at Vr and I was pulling back on the sidestick, (SOUNDS LIKE A PERSONAL PROBLEM......)gingerly at first then quickly attuned to the sensitivity, and boy was it sensitive!(NOT TOUCHING THIS WITH A 10 FT POLE)... After a couple(HUNDRED) of over controls I soon got the measure, no floating of the FAs and no sick bags required!
(GEEEEE.....THANKS)
I took my friend Jason along (yea you can kiss his ass good-bye)for the ride(YEA I HEARD HE FLED TO TURKEY) as I really wanted some video to keep, he is not a videographer and we took it on a little camera so apologies for the quality(BAD IS BAD...........NO MATTER......) but I am pleased to have a small memento of the session.(Viagra) He sat in the Captain's seat and was quite keen to ask questions and chat to our Instructor - (YEA.......IF YOU LIKE YOUR....YOUR LIFE)I had to ask them to pipe down(PIPE DOWN...........I GOT A SPECIAL PIPE ALRIGHT.) a couple of times as I was concentrating on the approach! (HE WAS FANCYING HIS LIFE AS IT WAS BEFORE....We even roped him in to operate the flaps and undercarriage LOL(I GOT NEWS, HE VOLUNTEERED)!
|
 |
All too quickly the session was over(you can only keep the NTSB away so long..........jeezus Dave) and I could barely walk out of the sim (being combative gets ya perks...called a'gurney' )as my smile was so wide
( I don't even want to know how much you paid for that smile....)!!??
|
 |
I had a great time and would do it again in a heartbeat, I am already saving the pennies!
All the best!
