Last Saturday, I went to a small local airport near where I live. At this airport, they arrange for sky diving lessons and flying lessons. Inside the one large building, they have a simulator for a a small 165 Cessna plane. The fellow at the airport knew that I used to fly the big jets, so he invited me to take a ride in the simulator.
I did really well on take offs, but crashed two out of my three attempts at landing. Big difference between a big jet with all the technology and advanced avionics onboard and a small plane where the pilot has to do all the work. I would have done alright, but I stalled just before landing.
