Any help will be great.
When flying a lesson in fs2004, instructor's comments do not synch with
flight.
For example, Rod Machado will say that if you look out the side window you
will see that the airport is 45 degrees from cockpit; in fact it has long
disappeared behind the plane.

Also, perfect landings are sometimes called crashes, etc.
Anybody know what's up.

Thanks.

Er Bob,
I hate to say this, but check what you are smoking before take-off. You may
have over-estimated your progress in the lessons...sorry mate!

by 45 degrees he means 45 degrees past abeam, in English about 7:30 on the
clock system where 12 o'clock is straight ahead, 9 o'clock is off your left
wing tip and 7:30 is halfway between your left wing tip and the tail of the
plane.

I had it tell me I'd crashed once when I landed fine. I was kind of short of
the touchdown point I think. Anyway I landed longer the next time and it was
fine.

It gets worse. Trying to understand the instrument rating failure notices
can be challenging. If you fail, it's because something was out of limits on
the portion of the flight she mentions, but not necessarily WHAT she says.

Enjoy!
Wad.
