And I do agree that if the instructor knows how to use the FTD, it can be very beneficial. I used it quite a bit for a student not understanding how wind affects final approach. The student learned pretty well what happens and how to correct. The sim isn't good with the whole flare/touchdown aspect, that's for sure...it tends to give you twice the effect of what ground effect does.
