What happens if you crash in a flight simulator?
With Crash Override ON you get a blue flash and a "Pop" noise and the flight continues (even underground). With Crash Override OFF the screens all turn opaque blue and freeze and must be reset by the Sim Operator. We have the exact same option and results for Kill (Death by a missile or gun) Override.

Can a flight simulator teach you to fly?
