One point I would like to make, that I think many forget is the simple fact that many of us old hands have many thousands of hours of sticktime in sims. The average BOB pilot would be lucky to have hundreds (granted some of the Brits and a good number of the Germans were "old hands" too, but there is no comparison time-wise)
Another thing is the fact that our lives are not in danger here. I don't think we can expect the same kind of difficulty that the real guys had, even though I will readily grant that there needs to be improvement.
I suppose the fact that the sim will probably be somewhat simplified workload wise is another matter as well.
I guess we'll see.
