Airbus A310-200 flight simulator wit Prins Bernhard Prince Bernhard 'flew' a bit yesterday but remained firmly on the ground. He officially inaugurated the flight simulator for the Airbus A310 at Schiphol. The thing means a huge cost saving because the pilots can learn a lot in it while they don't really have to take to the air. When the training in the fake cabin (cost 29.8 million guilders) is completed, the pilots who will be on duty on the new aircraft will only have to experience six more training hours before they can actually transport passengers. In the simulator, they will have experienced twelve lessons of four hours each.
