Stupid Question...

Post by jeff_w_yeg »

Hey Folks...

I'm flying tomorrow morning on WS696 CYEG to CYWG, bright & early (6:30...ugh...ha ha) and I have a stupid question - or maybe it's not so stupid...I don't know.

I was wondering if there was any chance in hell that I might be able to sneak onto the flight deck after the completion of the flight to take a peak around & maybe score a photo of myself in there?

As I've posted on here before, I'm a HUUUUGE flight sim geek (too big, if you ask my wife) and I'd love to take a look at the layout of the actual 737 to see how close things actually are (PMDG vs "The Real Deal") and maybe ask some questions as well.

If anyone "in the know" is on here - or knows the right folks to talk to, drop me a PM!

Thanks in advance!

Won't be a problem, happens all the time. Just mention it to the FA when boarding and they will make it happen.

PMDG sim is very accurate to the real B737ng!

Awesome! Thanks much! My biggest concern was if it was a quick turnaround for the crew/aircraft, but it looks (according to Flightaware anyways) that it's approximately an hour before it departs for YUL.

Thanks again...and I have heard that the PMDG is one of the most realistic models out there. I know that when I first got it, I was a little frustrated by it - there is a rather steep learning curve on it - but once I started following all the checks and flows, and then added "FS2Crew" so I had a "Virtual First Officer" to work with, I never looked back! And I'll never "fly" the default aircraft again.

Hey guys...

I just wanted to thank Captain Kevin, F/O Tyler & the crew from today's flight!

Did just as KAG suggested (asked the FA while I was boarding) and it all ended up good:

Thanks again folks!
