The Jets train in a level IV SIM and the first time they see the aircraft passengers are boarding!!!
FYI, when I went through Eagle, my entire new hire check ride ( SF34) was in the sim based on my quals. Others in my class had to do the aircraft check based on their quals.
Nothing to do with the sim.
