Flight Simulation software, which imitates the experience of flying, is often used to train airline pilots. Which of the following is LEAST likely to be an advantage of using flight simulation software

for this purpose?

A) Flight simulation software allows pilots to practice landing in a variety of different terrains and
weather conditions without having to physically travel

B) Flight simulation software could save money due to the cost of maintenance and fuel for actual
training flights

C) Flight Simulation software provides a more realistic experience for pilots than actual training flights.

D) Flight simulation software allows for the testing of emergency air situations without serious
consequences.​

Answer:

I think aswell that its C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Things like Xplane-11 can give you that more realistic expirence, because you can simulate weather conditions and you can train to land or just generally fly in the Simulator. Also it can simulate the failures which will train the pilot how to react to a situation say like an engine failure. If you have an engine failure or a fire, extinguish it and shut down the engine. After that you notify ATC and squwak 7700. After that you either return to the airport that you took off from, or you land at a nearby airport.

Answer:

C) Flight Simulation software provides a more realistic experience for pilots than actual training flights.

Step-by-step explanation:

Flight simulation softwares are used to teach prospective pilots in aviation schools. These softwares paint the conditions they are likely to face during real flights and how to cope with them.

Flight simulation software allows pilots to practice landing in a variety of different terrains and weather conditions without having to physically travel.

It helps in saving money due to the cost of maintenance and fuel for actual

training flights.

It however doesn’t create realistic experience for pilots than actual training flights.
