Flight Simulator Crash Detect
Posted: Sat Jan 21, 2006 8:06 pm
SunAir Express requires that all pilots set their flight simulator “Crash Detect” setting to “ON” for all flights logged to the Pilot Operation Center.
I have notices some high touchdown rates in the POC FSACARS logs, some above -1000 FPM. With that high of a touchdown rate I am suprised that the aircraft did not crash. This leads me to believe that the crash detect is not active.
I know it is no fun crashing after a flight thinking that you have to fly the leg again. But if this was real life and you crashed, would you expect to receive credit for the flight?
