I had a go in the mother of all flight simulators today. I'm afraid i have no photos for you. It was a full size 737-800 simulator, an actual one used for training pilots. I got to try 2 landings. First one was on calm wind, and was spot on! Second go was with a 10 knot crosswind, and according to the instructor, it was a textbook approach, but the landing itself was a bit hard :D

And yes, i'm going for the real deal now. After high-school, i'm going to become a real pilot! :)

Excellent! :D I was on a 738 on Sunday that tried landing in a cross-wind, but ended up going around due to windsheer over the runway. They got it down the second time though. :)

Would you recommend it? :) I'd like to pop down there over the summer at some stage when I'm back in Ireland.

I'd like an ATR sim. Amongst a long list of others!

Wouldn't it be more modern if it was the triple 7?

Mayhaps. Airlines in the US/North America don't pay their pilots enough. Emirates pays quite well though, so i might come by some day in the front-seat of an A380 8)
Kidding aside, most pilots i've talked to recommend Emirates and FlyDubai. They are expanding really fast, have new planes, need many pilots, very good wages, and supercars cost next to nothing in Dubai ;)

What 737 freeware model do you guys find the best?

Personally i prefer the 737 Experience. The Virtual Cockpit is a must for me.
