Subject: [LML] Simulators for Lancair Hello all, I'm in search of a Lancair simulator for the 235/320/360 airframe. I've decided I'd like to practice some stall maneuvers, and am not going to do it in the airplane. Does anyone have any recommendations for a simulator that has been configured for Lancair body? I realize the avionics will be off since we all have our own panel configurations, but avionics aside; we should all have similar airframes. I found several plane files for Microsoft Flight Simulator, but I'm hoping to find something a little higher end, preferably a full motion simulator. Thanx all, Dave --B_3440776098_905498 Content-type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable

Dave,

This topic was addressed a few years ago. I think it's un= likely that there is or ever will be a high quality simulator for a Lancair = or any experimental/amateur built airplane.

= A high quality simulator costs millions of dollars. That can possibly = make sense for production airplanes, but not for our Lancairs; A) there aren= 't enough of them, B) we'd be unwilling to pay the prices associated with si= mulator lease or training (figure $600 to $2,000 per hour), and 3) every pla= ne is different so the simulator accuracy would be limited anyway.

There are no high-quality motion simulators for Bonanzas, Ma= libus, Mooneys, or until last year, even a Pilatus PC-12. The $$$$'s a= re prohibitive.
