Hello, Here is my report :
It was WOOOOOOOOOOW for me if I have flown with a flightsimulator (with some help from a constructor (a real pilot ) ) from a B737-300. Around EBBR takeoff 25R Landing 25L and the constuctor did the taxi, taxi speed was 75 knots
.
There was nothing special but only the FS's where nice to see (and fly)
You can fly A340,A320,B737-300 and Avro RJ but there will be much people ( I think ) so go early or late
( Then you can fly the FS Longer )
Its free but you must give your passport and you will receive badges.
Its funny and nice I would say GO !!!!!

Damn. I certainly would have liked to fly a full-motion sim instead of this non-moving Microsoft thingy 
Normally, flying those sims is really expensive, so consider yourself really lucky that they did it for free (that's what they did, right?).
Anyway, at least I booked a nice holiday to Tenerife in August with Jetair...

Sorry for the late reply.
My brother (L-1011) and myself went to the opendoor on saturday morning. It was very nice and we were able to go inside the A340 simulator. Since there were a lot of people only 2 of the 4 guests in the sim were able to make a T/O and landing. My brother and I weren't able to do that
.
But it's very nice to sit on the jumpseat of the sim and watch how everything moves. I owuld like to have such a sim at home
but unfortunately it costs 1/4 of the price of a new plane. 8O

Must have been an nice experience. 
Flying the real thing is even more expensive. At least the sim doesn't use fuelAvro wrote:That's right. If I remember correctly it costs something like 1000€ for one hour - if you want to do it privately....flying those sims is really expensive,....
