I hate to bring up what may seem like an incredibly obvious point but why would anyone who drives a Coupe want to "log" time in a simulator? Coupes are too cheap to say you're doing it to save money and being serious VFR craft I cannot imagine what a simulator would do for your flying skills. To practice X-Wind landings you set up a fan at an angle then crab your monitor until touchdown your mouse will straighten out on it's own soon after. This seems to be a triumph of technology over reason. You guys are kidding I hope!!!!!!!
