Moses,

When Michael or I go in the simulator its 20 to 40 hours in a week of solid sim. About 20% of the time in the sim we have both engines running, the rest of the time its single engine, hyd out, simulated one engine on fire, no landing gear and so on. Its not fun and as we said before, if you pass the sim you can fly the plane.

The bad part about this is that after you have been doing this as long as Michael or I have, the instructors in the simulator usually have fun with us. One of them told me recently "you have seen all the old fashioned stuff, we have to make up new things for you old farts!"
