I am a private pilot, instrument rated with over 250 hours, 60 hours high performance, and 29 hours in SR22 / SR22T with a mountain checkout. Verified a bug fix, and documented some new “quirks” with Noble: swapping coms in FPL, and approach not including mandatory procedure turn, no ability to configure a VPATH. On the cost : benefit basis - a brand new setup identical to mine is going to be less than $7000, and that is going to be way more cheaper than logging 50 hours with a safety pilot in my Cirrus, but probably a little more expensive than scheduling and using my club’s simulator (which is mostly digital and not realistic for a Cirrus). Overall, by having to deal with some issues from time to time, I’m definitely more competent of a G1000 / GFC700 pilot, and expect my hand flying proficiency to improve as well. So having the G1000 simulator do the same from time to time, forces you to grasp the underlying issue at hand, and to navigate through the issue using other tools available to you. In real life things fail or don’t behave as you thought they might. And while there have been some Noble issues to work through, it turns out that those issues are making me a better pilot even though they wouldn’t occur in real life. While using the system with PilotEdge, I have probably now spent 50 hours of simulation flying time, most of it in instrument conditions. Having now completed the PilotEdge ratings with the Noble system, it allows me to reflect upon whether the investment was worthwhile - especially since I have documented roughly 10 bugs or missing major features.
Added in issues on the Noble system relating to DME arcs, holds, and FPL scrolling.

Update : Completed the PilotEdge I-11 rating, which is the last rating.

It’s always felt like you needed to be “in-the-know” in order to understand what you need to purchase, how to install, and then configure a system at home. While the simulation community is large and active, there aren’t many tutorials online. I’ve never setup a flight simulator at home.
