Simulator time?
 
How important is having sim time on airlineapps.com?

I never really logged sim events during my career (other than NATOPS and Ins checks).

For context, by the time I apply, I will have >4000TT & >3600PIC, all turbine and almost all jet, so I'm not worried about meeting mins. I'm guessing the sim time would be "a cherry on top" if anything, but I also wonder if blanks there would be viewed as an incomplete or sloppy app.

Thoughts?

I had a small amount of sim time in my log book from the part 141 school where I did a lot of my training. I entered it in airlineapps for no other reason than to make my airlineapps and logbooks jive. I haven't logged a sim event since entering the 121 world. I think in the airlineapps calculations, sim time is left out of total time so I'm not sure it's even relevant to those making hiring decisions.
