UPS has used full motion sims for interviews for years and I doubt they’ll change that anytime soon. (767pilot was the exception to the rule because he's sooo good that the HR only pretended to give him a sim eval. – Everyone knows Microsoft simulator is used on all superior pilots... )

Back then they took us over to an FBO at Bowman Field where they had an ATC XXX simulator. It was sort of like a twin engine mooney, although I know that doesn't exist. The prfile was pretty straight forward although I do recall that they had you fly an NDB bearing while climbing through a canyon (no visuals) where the NDB sat up on top of the land. I guess that they didn't want you getting off course much <G>.

Anyway, I couldn't have blown that one as bad as I did at Trump Shuttle where they used a shorts 360 sim, which I was actually typed in! How embarrassing is that?!?!
