I had no idea, either, how wonderful British Airways' Training Facilities at Cranebank (near Hatton Cross) are. I feel it is a real privilege to be there - I just wish it was under less trying circumstances.

What I would say, though, is that the simulator facilities are available to corporate clients for a training half-day called "Flight Safety Awareness" which takes business travellers through the emergency evacuation process and lets you have a go at operating the Emergency Exits or assisting the crew.

From a business traveller's perspective, the course will probably be an eye-opener, a bit of fun (with a serious message) and may just help them to stay calm and focussed in a real situation (heaven forbid!)
